The video tutorial explains how to find the area of a blue-shaded region within a square that circumscribes a circle. The square has sides of length D, and the circle's diameter is also D. The area of the blue region is calculated by subtracting the area of the circle from the area of the square. The circle's area is derived using the formula πr², where r is half of D. The final expression for the blue area is simplified to D²(4-π)/4.
