Explanation / Answer

Use polar coordinates (r,) with x=rcos(), y=rsin() and dA=rddr

Ix = y²dA = [r=0,6] [=0,/2] r²sin²()(kr²) rddr

Ix = k [r=0,6] rdr [=0,/2] sin²()d

The two integrals can be evaluated independently.

[=0,/2] sin²()d = ½ [=0,/2] {1cos(2) }d

= ½ [=0,/2] { sin()cos() } = ½ { /2 } = /4

[r=0,6] rdr = (1/6)( 6) = 6


Ix = 1944k

Because of symmetry Iy = Ix

The polar moment I = r²dA = Ix + Iy = 3888k

This is easily confirmed

r²dA = [r=0,6] [=0,/2] r².kr². rddr = [r=0,6] krdr [=0,/2] d

= (k6/6)(/2) = k6/2 = as above

Ix = 1944k

   Iy = 1944k

   I= 3888k
