The video tutorial explains the difference between two angles, emphasizing that both are in radians, not degrees. It clarifies the concept of radians by describing how a radius wrapped around an arc length forms a radian. The tutorial further explores the comparison between angles expressed in radians and those in terms of pi, highlighting that they represent different measurements. The instructor uses visualizations and examples to ensure understanding, addressing common misconceptions about these angle measurements.
