Exploring Polynomial Addition Techniques

The video tutorial covers the addition of polynomials using algebra tiles and the column method. It provides examples and practice problems to illustrate these methods. The tutorial also demonstrates the use of the commutative property in polynomial addition and applies these concepts to find the perimeter of geometric figures.
