The video tutorial covers various theorems related to angle relationships in circles, including Theorem 10.11, which discusses angles formed by a tangent and a chord, Theorem 10.12 about angles inside circles, and Theorem 10.13 about angles outside circles. Examples and applications are provided to illustrate these concepts, including problems involving tangents, chords, secants, and real-world applications like calculating the arc visible from an airplane.
