The video tutorial explains how to construct a line parallel to a given line through a specific point. It involves drawing a transversal line, using corresponding angles, and verifying the parallelism through angle congruence. The process uses a compass and straight edge to ensure accuracy.

What is the initial goal mentioned in the video?

• To draw a perpendicular line

• To construct a parallel line through a given point

• To measure the length of a line

• To find the midpoint of a line
