Slick Moments of Inertia
Consider a plate in form of an equilateral triangle whose moment of inertia relative to an axis that pases through the centroid of the triangle, perpendiculat to the plate. Now consider a plate in form of a regular hexagon with the mass as the other plate and with sides of the same lenght as the triangular one so, it has a moment of inertia relative to an axis that pases through its center, perpendicular to the plate of . Which is the value for

Slikness at its fitness. I use figures to represent the moment of inertia for objects with different geometry. The "x" represent an axis that pases through the paper and to where the object rotates. The dots represent the center or centroid of the object.
