Using the Delta-epsilon definition but for two variables?

I have probably over thought the whole thing... but I can't seem to find any place to start with this one:

Using the formal definition of a limit:

f(x,y)= y / (x^2 + 1) e=0.05

For multiple dimensions you need to extend the epsilon-delta notation to incorporate the epsilon-neighborhood of the point p0 = (x,y), which is the set of all points p such that the distance between p0 and p is less than epsilon.

The limit seems to be 0.
So if 0<|y|<\delta and 0<|x|<\delta.

\left| \frac{y}{x^2+1} \right| \leq \frac{|y|}{x^2} < \frac{\delta}{x^2}.

Now use single variable analysis that \frac{\delta}{x^2} can be made sufficiently small.

limit as (x,y) goes to what?
 
Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
