The video tutorial covers the use of geometrical tools for constructing accurate figures, focusing on constructing angle bisectors, perpendicular bisectors, and 60-degree angles. It explains the steps involved in these constructions and provides methods to validate them using geometry principles and paper folding. Additionally, it introduces a paper folding technique for trisecting angles, which is otherwise impossible with traditional tools.
