The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Approach:
We check the matches by differentiating the answers in List-II. If the derivative gives the integrand in List-I, the pair is correct.

Step 2: Differentiate II:
$\frac{d}{dx}\left[\frac{x}{2}\sqrt{16-x^2}+8\sin^{-1}\frac{x}{4}\right]=\frac12\sqrt{16-x^2}-\frac{x^2}{2\sqrt{16-x^2}}+\frac{8}{\sqrt{16-x^2}}$. Put over a common denominator: $\frac{(16-x^2)-x^2+16}{2\sqrt{16-x^2}}=\frac{32-2x^2}{2\sqrt{16-x^2}}=\sqrt{16-x^2}$. So A goes with II.

Step 3: Differentiate I:
$\frac{d}{dx}\sin^{-1}\frac{x}{4}=\frac{1/4}{\sqrt{1-x^2/16}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{16-x^2}}$. So B goes with I.

Step 4: Differentiate III and IV:
$\frac18\frac{d}{dx}\left[\log(4+x)-\log(4-x)\right]=\frac18\left[\frac{1}{4+x}+\frac{1}{4-x}\right]=\frac18\cdot\frac{8}{16-x^2}=\frac{1}{16-x^2}$, so D goes with III. And $\frac{d}{dx}\log\left(x+\sqrt{x^2-16}\right)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2-16}}$, so C goes with IV.

Step 5: Choose:
The set A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III is option 4.

Final Answer:
\[ \boxed{\text{A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III}} \]
