Put the second polynomial under the first polynomial and add
the corresponding terms.  

 x&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt; + x&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt; +  x&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; + x + 1 
 x&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt; - x&lt;sup&gt;3&lt;/sup&gt; +  x&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; - x + 1
----------------------
2x&lt;sup&gt;4&lt;/sup&gt;      + 2x&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;     + 2
