The video tutorial introduces the undefined terms in geometry: point, line, and plane. It explains that these terms do not have formal definitions but are universally understood. A point is described as having no dimension and is represented by a dot. A line has one dimension, extends infinitely in both directions, and is represented by a line with arrowheads. A plane has two dimensions and is represented by a flat surface. The video also explains that through any two points, there is exactly one line, and through any three non-collinear points, there is exactly one plane. The tutorial concludes with a transition to a math activity.
