x^{2}+4x-\left(x+2\right)\left(x-2\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply x by x+4.
x^{2}+4x-\left(x^{2}-2^{2}\right)
Consider \left(x+2\right)\left(x-2\right). Multiplication can be transformed into difference of squares using the rule: \left(a-b\right)\left(a+b\right)=a^{2}-b^{2}.
x^{2}+4x-\left(x^{2}-4\right)
Calculate 2 to the power of 2 and get 4.
x^{2}+4x-x^{2}-\left(-4\right)
To find the opposite of x^{2}-4, find the opposite of each term.
x^{2}+4x-x^{2}+4
The opposite of -4 is 4.
4x+4
Combine x^{2} and -x^{2} to get 0.
