    B
    $\frac{-1}{4} \sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{\cos ^2 2 x}{2}\right)+c$, where $c$ is the constant of integration.
  • C
    $\frac{1}{2} \sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{\cos ^2 2 x}{2}\right)+c \quad$, where $c$ is the constant of integration.
  • D
    $\frac{-1}{2} \sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{\cos ^2 2 x}{2}\right)+c \quad$, where $c$ is the constant of integration.

Solution

Let $I = \int \frac{\sin 2x \cos 2x}{\sqrt{4 - \cos^4 2x}} dx$.

Applying the substitution $u = \cos^2 2x$, the differential becomes $du = -4 \sin 2x \cos 2x dx$, yielding $\sin 2x \cos 2x dx = -\frac{1}{4} du$.

Substituting into the integral gives $I = -\frac{1}{4} \int \frac{1}{\sqrt{4 - u^2}} du$.

This evaluates to the inverse sine form: $I = -\frac{1}{4} \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{u}{2}\right) + c$.

Returning to the original variable, $I = -\frac{1}{4} \sin^{-1}\left(\frac{\cos^2 2x}{2}\right) + c$.

Final Answer: $\boxed{\text{B}}$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
