x^{4}-4x^{3}+4x^{2}+4+4c=0
Multiply both sides of the equation by 4.
-4x^{3}+4x^{2}+4+4c=-x^{4}
Subtract x^{4} from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
4x^{2}+4+4c=-x^{4}+4x^{3}
Add 4x^{3} to both sides.
4+4c=-x^{4}+4x^{3}-4x^{2}
Subtract 4x^{2} from both sides.
4c=-x^{4}+4x^{3}-4x^{2}-4
Subtract 4 from both sides.
\frac{4c}{4}=\frac{-\left(x^{2}+2\right)^{2}+4x^{3}}{4}
Divide both sides by 4.
c=\frac{-\left(x^{2}+2\right)^{2}+4x^{3}}{4}
Dividing by 4 undoes the multiplication by 4.
c=-\frac{\left(x^{2}+2\right)^{2}}{4}+x^{3}
Divide 4x^{3}-\left(x^{2}+2\right)^{2} by 4.
