The video tutorial covers the evaluation of algebraic limits using standard limits and theorem one. It explains the theorem that states the limit of (X^n - A^n) / (X - A) as X approaches A is equal to n times A^(n-1). The tutorial demonstrates the application of this theorem through examples, including a complex limit evaluation where direct formulas are not applicable. The process involves dividing both the numerator and denominator by (X - A) and applying the theorem to simplify the expression.
