The video tutorial explains the properties of a regular hexagon, focusing on the measures of its interior and exterior angles. It highlights that a regular hexagon has equal sides and angles. The sum of exterior angles for any polygon is 360 degrees, and for a hexagon, each exterior angle measures 60 degrees. The sum of interior angles is calculated using the formula (n-2) * 180 degrees, resulting in 720 degrees for a hexagon, with each interior angle measuring 120 degrees. The tutorial concludes by explaining that interior and exterior angles are supplementary.
