I'm not sure what your problem with dy/dx or dx/dy is. But in any case, the equation is a graph for a semi-circle with radius 4 sitting entirely above the x-axis. So to find the area, just find the area of a circle with radius 4 and divide by 2.

There might be a way to integrate that kind of equation, but I never bothered.
