This video tutorial reviews operations with radicals, starting with a recap of like terms. It explains the concept of like radicals, emphasizing the need for the same radicand and index. The tutorial covers how to add and subtract like radicals using the distributive property. It also demonstrates simplifying radicals to identify like radicals and addresses complex radical expressions. Finally, it explores multiplication of radicals using the distributive property and FOIL method.

What is the main focus of this lesson?

• Reviewing operations with polynomials
