Explanation:
I would just square twice in rectangular form:
#(3-6i)^2 = (3(1-2i))^2#
#color(white)((3-6i)^2) = 3^2(1-2i)^2#
#color(white)((3-6i)^2) = 9(1-4i-4)#
#color(white)((3-6i)^2) = 9(-3-4i)#
#(9(-3-4i))^2 = 9^2(3+4i)^2#
#color(white)((9(-3-4i))^2) = 81(9+24i-16)#
#color(white)((9(-3-4i))^2) = 81(-7+24i)#
#color(white)((9(-3-4i))^2) = -567+1944i#
