The correct answer is 0.25.

We are given two functions defined on the interval [0,π2] :
f (x) = sin 2 x
g (x) = πx 2 - x 2

We need to evaluate the expression:
I = 16 π 3 0 π 2 f (x) g (x) dx

Step 1: Simplify the Integral using King's Property
Let J = 0 π 2 sin 2 x · g (x) dx   ... (Equation 1)

Using the definite integral property 0 a h (x) dx = 0 a h (a-x) dx with a = π 2 , we replace x with π2-x:

First, evaluate f ( π 2 - x ) = sin 2 ( π 2 - x ) = cos 2 x .

Next, evaluate g ( π 2 - x ) :
g ( π 2 - x ) = π 2 ( π 2 - x ) - ( π 2 - x ) 2
= π 2 4 - π x 2 - ( π 2 4 - π x + x 2 )
= π x 2 - x 2 = g (x)

Therefore, applying King's Property gives:
J = 0 π 2 cos 2 x · g (x) dx   ... (Equation 2)

Adding Equation 1 and Equation 2:
2J = 0 π 2 ( sin 2 x + cos 2 x ) g (x) dx
Since sin 2 x + cos 2 x = 1 , we get:
2J = 0 π 2 g (x) dx
J = 1 2 0 π 2 πx 2 - x 2 dx

Step 2: Evaluate the integral geometrically
We complete the square for the quadratic term inside the square root:
πx 2 - x 2 = - ( x 2 - πx 2 ) = ( π 4 ) 2 - ( x - π 4 ) 2

Thus, the integral 0 π 2 ( π 4 ) 2 - ( x - π 4 ) 2 dx represents the area of a upper semicircle centered at ( π 4 ,0) with radius R = π 4 .

The area of this semicircle is:
Area = 1 2 π R 2 = 1 2 π ( π 4 ) 2 = π 3 32

Substituting this area into our expression for J:
J = 1 2 · π 3 32 = π 3 64

Step 3: Calculate the final value
Now, substitute J back into the required expression I:
I = 16 π 3 · J = 16 π 3 · π 3 64 = 16 64 = 1 4 = 0.25

Hence, the value of the given expression is 0.25.
