I think this should be added to the description, although it's all theory and has nothing to do with guitar playing. These 5th 'chords' are not actually chords at all, although they are commonly referred to as Power Chords. They're comprised of the Root, 5th, and another root. If you have access to a piano, you can try this. C E G is a C major chord, and it gets that major sound from the 3rd. Flatten that third and it's minor. Remove it, and it's neutral. A 5th chord/power chord.

@sharon246787 power chords can not be played minor because the 3rd is removed, that's why they are neutral chords not major or minor

@9ejay2 it's just like playing Emin chord but hitting EAD strings only. It's right before F5 and you don't have to place your first finger anywhere
