The video tutorial explains how to find the value of X for the interior angle of a polygon. It begins by discussing the sum of exterior angles, which is always 360 degrees, regardless of the polygon type. The focus then shifts to interior angles, explaining that their sum depends on the number of sides of the polygon. The formula (number of sides - 2) * 180 is used to calculate the sum of interior angles. An example is provided using a hexagon, and the process of solving for X is demonstrated by setting up and solving an equation based on the sum of interior angles.
