Two-variable limit of $lim_{(x,y)to(0,0)}frac{sin(x^4+y^4)}{x^2+y^2}$
$begingroup$
$$lim_{(x,y)to(0,0)}frac{sin(x^4+y^4)}{x^2+y^2}$$
I tried to bound it with $frac{sin((x^2+y^2)^2)}{x^2+y^2}$ and using polar coordinates with $x = rcostheta$ and $y = rsintheta$, but neither of the approaches provided any results. I know that the limit exists and is equal to 0, so tricks with different paths won't work. Should I use the squeeze theorem, or is there another solution?

Use $|sin t|leq |t|$ then
$$Big|frac{sin(x^4+y^4)}{x^2+y^2}Big|leqfrac{x^4+y^4}{x^2+y^2}leqfrac{x^4+y^4+2x^2y^2}{x^2+y^2}= x^2+y^2$$
