Change of variables Double integral I have 
$$\iint_A \frac{1}{(x^2+y^2)^2}\,dx\,dy.$$
$A$ is bounded by the conditions $x^2 + y^2 \leq 1$ and $x+y \geq 1$.
I initially thought to make the switch the polar coordinates, but the line $x+y=1$ is making it hard to find the limits of integration. 
 A: $$
x+y = r(\cos\theta+\sin\theta) = r\sqrt{2}\sin\left(\theta+\frac\pi2\right).
$$
So
$$
\iint_A \frac{dx\,dy}{(x^2+y^2)^2} = \int_0^{\pi/2} \int_{(\csc(\theta+\pi/4))/\sqrt{2}}^1 \frac{r\,dr \, d\theta}{r^4}.
$$
$$
= \int_0^{\pi/2} \left(\int_{(\csc(\theta+\pi/4))/\sqrt{2}}^1\  \frac{dr}{r^3} \right) \, d\theta
$$
A: If you rotate your domain by $45$ degrees your line becomes $y=\sqrt{2} /  2$ and the integrand is invariant, so you get (also use the simmetry with respect to $x=0$):
$$
\iint_A \frac{1}{(x^2+y^2)^2} = 2\int_0^{\sqrt 2/2}\,dx\int_{\sqrt 2/2}^{\sqrt{1-x^2}} \frac{dy}{(x^2+y^2)}
$$
A: Here is another answer
$$\iint_A \frac{1}{(x^2+y^2)^2}\,dx\,dy=\int_{0}^{1}\int_{1-x}^{\sqrt{1-x^2}} \frac{1}{(x^2+y^2)^2}\,dy\,dx .$$
A: The integral $Q$ remains unchanged when we replace $A$ by
$$A':=\left\{(x,y)\ \bigg|\ x\geq{\sqrt{2}\over 2}, \ x^2+y^2\leq 1\right\}\ .$$
Changing to polar coordinates we get
$$Q=\int_{A'}{1\over (x^2+y^2)^2}\ {\rm d}(x,y)=\int_{-\pi/4}^{\pi/4} \int_{1/(\sqrt{2}\cos\phi)}^1 {1\over r^4}\> r\> dr\ d\phi\ .$$
The inner integral computes to
$${-1\over 2r^2}\biggr|_{1/(\sqrt{2}\cos\phi)}^1=\cos^2\phi-{1\over2}={1\over2}\cos(2\phi)\ .$$
It follows that
$$Q={1\over2}\int_{-\pi/4}^{\pi/4} \cos(2\phi)\ d\phi={1\over4}\sin(2\phi)\biggr|_{-\pi/4}^{\pi/4}={1\over2}\ .$$
