The video tutorial explains how to determine the sum of interior angles of a polygon by using the measure of an exterior angle. It highlights the relationship between the number of sides and exterior angles, emphasizing that the sum of exterior angles is always 360 degrees. By dividing 360 by the measure of an exterior angle, one can find the number of sides of the polygon. The tutorial also discusses rounding and approximation in calculations and how to use formulas to find the sum of interior angles.
