Detail solution

Differentiate $x^{4} - 2 x^{2} + 2$ term by term:
1. Apply the power rule: $x^{4}$ goes to $4 x^{3}$
2. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
  1. The derivative of a constant times a function is the constant times the derivative of the function.
    1. Apply the power rule: $x^{2}$ goes to $2 x$
    So, the result is: $4 x$
  So, the result is: $- 4 x$
3. The derivative of the constant $2$ is zero.
The result is: $4 x^{3} - 4 x$
Now simplify:

$4 x \left(x^{2} - 1\right)$

The answer is:

4 x \left(x^{2} - 1\right)
