To simplify the expression given in the numerator, we can break it down step-by-step. The numerator is:

\[
(16 - 12)^2 + 5 (8 + 2^2)
\]

1. Calculate \(16 - 12\):
\[
16 - 12 = 4
\]

2. Square the result:
\[
(4)^2 = 16
\]

3. Now calculate \(2^2\):
\[
2^2 = 4
\]

4. Add this to 8:
\[
8 + 4 = 12
\]

5. Multiply by 5:
\[
5 \times 12 = 60
\]

6. Now, add the two parts together:
\[
16 + 60 = 76
\]

Thus, the simplified numerator is:

\[
\boxed{76}
\]
