In this video tutorial, the problem involves a circle with radii AC and BC, and a triangle ACB with angle C at 123 degrees. The task is to find angle ABD, where BD is a tangent to the circle. The solution involves recognizing triangle ACB as isosceles, calculating angle theta, and using the tangent theorem to find angle x, which is 61.5 degrees. The video concludes with a reminder that angle ABD is half of angle C.
