Moment of Inertia: Calculate Centroid & Axis Inertia

Click For Summary
To determine the centroid coordinates of the given area, calculations must be performed based on the provided figure. The moments of inertia about both horizontal and vertical axes through the centroid need to be calculated using relevant equations. Participants are reminded to adhere to the forum rules, which prohibit direct solutions to homework problems. Instead, users should demonstrate their understanding by listing equations and showing their work for review. Engaging in this manner will facilitate constructive feedback on the calculations.

DIESEL ind: The PF rules state we are not allowed to tell you how to approach or solve your homework problem. See the required homework template that appears when you start to create a new thread in the homework forums. You must list relevant equations yourself, and show your work; and then someone might check your math.
