Learn the basic definition of the zero product property

The video tutorial explains the zero product property, which states that if the product of two or more expressions equals zero, then at least one of the expressions must be zero. The teacher emphasizes the inclusive nature of 'or' in this context, meaning one or both expressions can be zero. The tutorial demonstrates how to apply this property to solve equations by setting each expression to zero and solving for the variable. The session concludes with an invitation for questions and a reminder to take notes.
