Area and Geometry Concepts

This video tutorial covers applications of geometry using polynomials. It demonstrates two methods for calculating the area of a square: by summing the areas of smaller shapes and by using the formula for a square's area. The tutorial also includes an example of finding the area of a shaded region by subtracting the areas of smaller squares from a larger square. The video emphasizes understanding the relationships between different geometric shapes and their areas.
