This is what I have: I = (1-4/(2\pi+4))*M0*(L0/(2\pi+4))2+4*M0/(2\pi+4)*(L0/(2\pi+4))2 It seems very messy/cumbersome. Am I going about this wrong?

Homework Statement A stiff uniform wire of mass M0 and length L0 is cut, bent, and the parts soldered together so that it forms a circular wheel having four identical spokes coming out from the center. None of the wire is wasted, and you can neglect the mass of the solder. What is the...
