From $$int_-a^a ,int_0^sqrta^2-x^2 ,(x^2+y^2),texte^x^4+2x^2y^2+y^4 , textdy ,textdx=int_-a^a, int_0^sqrta^2-x^2 ,(x^2+y^2),texte^(x^2+y^2)^2 , textdy , textdx,,$$
so $-aleq xleq a$ or $-asecthetaleq r leq asectheta$,
and since the region is between $y=0$ and $y=sqrta^2-x^2 $ , so $0leq thetaleq pi$.
I integrate $$int_0^pi ,int_-asectheta^asectheta r^3,texte^r^4 , textdr , textdtheta,.$$
Solving it I get the area to be zero. If my calculations are correct, is it safe to assume that whenever I am integrating over a region that is symmetric against $y$-axis the area should be zero?

The limits of the integral in $r$ are wrong. The area of integration is half a disk of radius $a$ centered at the origin. The graph of $y=sqrta^2-x^2$ is the semicircle $x^2+y^2=a^2$, $yge0$. The region of integration is $0lethetalepi$, $0le rle a$.
could you please point out the flaw in my understanding about the boundary for r.In the 3rd line, I have written my method for the boundary of r.

It is certainly true that $-ale xle a$, but there is another condition, $0le ylesqrta^2-x^2$. What happens when $theta=0$? Is $r=infty$? You are even accepting negative values for $r$.

@JuliánAguirre Is there a consistent way of finding the bounds when you change the integration? I understand you can draw it, but is there an algebraic way?

Most of the times there is. In this problem, the condition $0le ylesqrta^2-x^2$ transforms into $x^2+y^2le a^2$, which in polar coordinates is $0le rle a$.
