Answer

$\frac{1}{32}\pi$

Work Step by Step

\[\begin{align} & \int_{0}^{1/2}{x\sqrt{1-16{{x}^{4}}}dx} \\ & \text{Let }u=4{{x}^{2}},\text{ }du=8xdx \\ & \text{The new limits of integration are:} \\ & x=0\to u=0 \\ & x=1/2\to u=1 \\ & \text{Substituting} \\ & \int_{0}^{1/2}{x\sqrt{1-16{{x}^{4}}}dx}=\int_{0}^{1}{x\sqrt{1-{{\left( 4{{x}^{2}} \right)}^{2}}}dx} \\ & =\frac{1}{8}\int_{0}^{1}{\sqrt{1-{{u}^{2}}}du} \\ & \text{Solving }\int_{0}^{1}{\sqrt{1-{{u}^{2}}}du}\text{ by the equation of a semicirle} \\ & =\frac{1}{8}\left( \frac{1}{4}\pi {{\left( 1 \right)}^{2}} \right) \\ & =\frac{1}{32}\pi \\ \end{align}\]
