The video tutorial explains how geometric constraints are created during sketching and how they can be added or removed later. It covers viewing constraints by right-clicking and selecting 'show all constraints'. Examples of vertical, parallel, and perpendicular constraints are provided. The tutorial also demonstrates how to remove constraints and discusses using tangent and concentric constraints with curved shapes like circles and arcs. Finally, it shows how to toggle the visibility of constraints.
