The video tutorial explains the five different centers of a triangle: circumcenter, centroid, incenter, orthocenter, and nine-point center. It describes how each center is constructed using geometric properties like perpendicular bisectors, medians, angle bisectors, altitudes, and a nine-point circle. The tutorial also highlights Euler's line, which connects four of these centers in any triangle.
