All three of these integrals can be calculated after making the 
substitution  y=-r Sin[t]. For example for the first integral
(note that since -Sqrt[3]/2 r<y<0, the bounds for t become 0<t<Pi/3)

exp = Simplify[(1/(2 Sqrt[3]) r^2 (-Sqrt[r^2 + 2 y (y - Sqrt[3] 
Sqrt[r^2 - y^2])])) /. {y -> -r Sin[t]}, r > 0 && 0 < t < Pi/3];

(* multiply exp with dy/dt == -r Cos[t] and integrate. *)

Integrate[-r Cos[t] exp, {t, 0, Pi/3}]

which gives

1/36 (9 + Sqrt[3] \[Pi]) r^4

The other two can be done in exactly the same way.
