To expand and express the polynomial \((4x^5 - y^2)^2\) in standard form, we can follow these steps:

Step 1: Set Up the Expression

We need to expand the expression \((4x^5 - y^2)(4x^5 - y^2)\).

Step 2: Apply the Distributive Property (or FOIL)

Now we will apply the distributive property:

\[ (4x^5 - y^2)(4x^5 - y^2) = (4x^5)(4x^5) + (4x^5)(-y^2) + (-y^2)(4x^5) + (-y^2)(-y^2) \]

Step 3: Calculate Each Term

  1. First Term: \[ (4x^5)(4x^5) = 16x^{10} \]

  2. Outer Term: \[ (4x^5)(-y^2) = -4x^5y^2 \]

  3. Inner Term: \[ (-y^2)(4x^5) = -4x^5y^2 \]

  4. Last Term: \[ (-y^2)(-y^2) = y^4 \]

Step 4: Combine Like Terms

Now, we combine like terms:

The two middle terms \(-4x^5y^2\) and \(-4x^5y^2\) can be combined: \[ -4x^5y^2 - 4x^5y^2 = -8x^5y^2 \]

So, putting it all together, we have: \[ 16x^{10} - 8x^5y^2 + y^4 \]

Step 5: Write in Standard Form

The standard form of the polynomial is: \[ \boxed{16x^{10} - 8x^5y^2 + y^4} \]
