Here are the solutions to the integration problems.

2. (i) ∫dxx2−16\int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{x^2 - 16}}
This integral is of the form ∫dxx2−a2\int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{x^2 - a^2}}.
Here, a2=16a^2 = 16, so a=4a = 4.
The formula for this type of integral is ln⁡∣x+x2−a2∣+C\ln|x + \sqrt{x^2 - a^2}| + C.
Substituting a=4a=4:

∫dxx2−16=ln⁡∣x+x2−16∣+C\int \frac{dx}{\sqrt{x^2 - 16}} = \ln|x + \sqrt{x^2 - 16}| + C

The final answer is $\boxed{\ln|x +
