    Undergrad Calculating Moment of Inertia for Combined Shapes

    actually you know what, through more googling and researching stuffs, I've figured it out. I've been trying to find somewhere to explain this to me for a while now, but I didn't know exactly what to search for until your reply, so thanks for that :biggrin:

    Undergrad Calculating Moment of Inertia for Combined Shapes

    probably should have specified, the z axis, or the axis perpendicular to the plane. the axis of choice is the blue COM, and I don't know how to find the moment of inertia of each shape except with central axes (I don't know much in the world of rotational inertia)
