It means you multiply the binomial by itself. Multiplying polynomials requires multiplying every term of the first with every term of the second. For example, (a+b)2 = a2 + ab + ba + b2 = a2 + 2ab + b2.

The binomial usually has an x2 term and an x term, so we complete the square by adding a constant term. If the coefficient of x2 is not 1, we divide the binomial by that coefficient first (we can multiply the trinomial by it later). Then we divide the coefficient of x by 2 and square that. That is the constant that we need to add to get the perfect square trinomial. Then just multiply that trinomial by the original coefficient of x2.

2 a2 is a monomial, not a binomial but 2 + a2 is a binomial, so is 2 - a2 .
You could start with multiplying two different binomials ("FOIL" and such), then squaring a binomial is just a special case. In both cases, you could give a geometric illustration (a square with sides a+b and c+d, and the product represented by area)
