The video tutorial explains how to solve an angle problem using the angle sum theorem. It starts by introducing the problem, which involves finding the measures of angles ABC and DBC given the measure of angle ABD. The tutorial explains how to use expressions with a variable x to represent the angles and solve for x using the angle sum theorem. Once x is determined, the values are plugged back into the expressions to find the measures of the angles. The tutorial concludes with a summary of the problem-solving process.
