True/False

A carpentry apprentice is using the Binomial Squares Pattern to calculate the area of a square support base with a side length of (425)(4 - 2\sqrt{5}) inches. True or False: When expanding the expression (425)2(4 - 2\sqrt{5})^2 using the pattern (ab)2=a22ab+b2(a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2, the middle term ($2ab$) must be subtracted because the original binomial involves subtraction.
