The video tutorial explains how to find the volume of a triangular pyramid. It starts with the general formula for the volume of pyramids, which is 1/3 times the area of the base times the height. The base is a triangle, so its area is calculated as 1/2 times the base times the height of the triangle. The video demonstrates substituting the known values into the formula and simplifying to find the volume, which is 12 cubic meters.
