Substitute $x=r\cos \varphi$, $y=r\sin \varphi$ and include the Jacobian determinant factor $r$. The integrand times the area element becomesBoth terms containing one factor $\sin \varphi$ are odd in $\varphi$, while the radial bounds and angular interval are even. They therefore integrate to zero. The remaining double integral isThe domain stays away from $r=0$, so the denominator of the original integrand causes no singularity in this region.
