Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
I got
I = (ML^2)/3
My work is attached below. The reason why I ask this question is because I can't find the answer any were online for moment of inertia of a square about this particular axis and just wanted to make sure that my answer was correct. Thanks for any help you can provide if it's wrong.
