\displaystyle\int_{-1}^{-\sqrt2/2}\frac{\mathrm dy}{y\sqrt{4y^2-1}}

Try setting y=\dfrac12\sec t, so that \mathrm dy=\dfrac12\sec t\tan t\,\mathrm dt. The interval then changes from -1\le y\le-\dfrac{\sqrt2}2 to \dfrac{2\pi}3\le t\le \dfrac{3\pi}4.

Now, the integral is

\displaystyle \int_{2\pi/3}^{3\pi/4} \frac{\dfrac12\sec t\tan t}{\dfrac12\sec t\sqrt{4\left(\dfrac12\sec t\right)^2-1}}\,\mathrm dt=\int_{2\pi/3}^{3\pi/4}\frac{\tan t}{\sqrt{\sec^2t-1}}\,\mathrm dt

The Pythagorean identity lets you reduce the denominator:

\sqrt{\sec^2t-1}=\sqrt{\tan^2t}=|\tan t|

Since \tan t for the given interval, you have |\tan t|=-\tan t, which means the integral is equal to

\displaystyle\int_{2\pi/3}^{3\pi/4}\frac{\tan t}{-\tan t}\,\mathrm dt=-\int_{2\pi/3}^{3\pi/4}\mathrm dt=-\dfrac\pi{12}
