The video tutorial explains vertical angles, which are formed by the intersection of two lines and are equal in measure. Unlike linear pairs, vertical angles are not adjacent but share the same vertex. The tutorial clarifies that vertical angles do not prove lines are parallel, addressing common misconceptions. Examples of vertical angles are provided, and the importance of understanding their properties is emphasized.
