Question
**Calculate the following integral:**

\[ \int_{0}^{4} \sqrt{16 - x^2} \, dx \]

This integral represents the area under the curve of the function \(\sqrt{16 - x^2}\) from \(x = 0\) to \(x = 4\). The expression under the square root, \(16 - x^2\), is characteristic of a semicircle's equation when rearranged as \(x^2 + y^2 = 16\). Here, the integral calculates one quadrant of this circle, specifically over the interval provided.
