Properties of Plane Areas
Notation: A = area
3,7 = distances to centroid C
T,,1, = moments of inertia with respect to the x and y axes,
respectively
Ixy = product of inertia with respect fo the x and y axes
dp = 1, + J, = polar moment of inestia with respect tothe origin of
the x and y axes
Ing = moment of inertia with respect to axis B-B
