[(x+4)-2y]^2
find the indicated products and simplify
Just FOIL since this involves the product of 2 binomials. ======> 

This results in: %28x+%2B+4%29%5E2+-+4y%28x+%2B+4%29+%2B+%282y%29%5E2, and then: highlight_green%28x%5E2+%2B+8x+%2B+16+-+4xy+-+16y+%2B+4y%5E2%29

There are NO like-terms to combine, so that's it! Nothing else!
