Product of inertia Ixy for Right-angle triangle-case-2.

Product of inertia Ixy for right-angle by using a vertical strip.

1-For Ixy estimation, a vertical strip will be used, the strip width is dx and its height is y.
2- since the strip height starts from the base and is interested with line  AC, y value is the same as the line AC equation y=h*x/b, for the x value it will be=b*y/h.   

3- the moment of inertia due to that strip dIxy=dA*x-bar*y-bar) , our x bar =x, while ybar=y/2. Since we are integrating in the x-direction, we will substitute for – y value as (y=h*x/b ).

we will integrate from x=e from x=0 to x=b, the final answer is Ixy=h^2*b^2/8.

Product of inertia Ixy for right-angle by using a horizontal strip as an alternative.

1-For Ixy estimation, a horizontal strip will be used, the strip width is (b-x) and its height is y. 
 2- Since the strip height starts from the base and intersects with line  AC, the y value is the same as the line AC equation y=h*x/b, for x value it will be=b*y/h.     
 
3- the product moment of inertia due to that strip dIxy=dA*xbar*ybar) , our x bar =((x+0.50*(b-x))=1/2(b+x), while ybar=y. Since we are integrating in the y direction, we will substitute for x value as (x=b*y/h ). We will integrate from x=e from x=0 to x=b, the final answer is Ixy=h^2*b^2/8, which is the same value obtained by using a horizontal strip.

The same expression in the next slide is the integration of the dIxy from 0 to h of โˆซ(b^2)*(y*dy)- (1/2*b^2โˆซ y^3*dy/h^2). The integration of dIxy will be =Ixy and the b^2/2 will be the common factor.
For the first term y*dy the integration will be y^2/2 from 0 to h, (-) (b^2/2)*(y^4/4*h^2) when we are going to substitute when y=h.

We have (b^2/4)h^2- b^2/2((h^4/4h^2), it will become (b^2/8)( h^4/h^2)adjusting the terms, we have (b^2)(h^2)/4-(b^2h^2/8)=(h^2/8).

 Product of inertia Ixyg for right-angle at the CG.

The product of inertia at the Cg Ixyg which is the product of inertia at the CG can be estimated by subtracting the product of A*x-bar*y-bar from Ixy value. For the Ixycg by using the parallel axes theorem, we have to deduct the multiplication of the area by (x*y). So Ixy at the Cg=Ixy-(area of the triangle *x bar*y bar)..
Our area for the triangle=( 1/2 *b*h), x-bar= 2/3 b, y bar =h/3.

So A (x-bar)*(y-bar) = (1/2)*( b*h)*(2/3*b)(h/3). 2 will go with 2 cancels each other, then we left we (b^2*h^2/9) so our Ixy at the CG=(b^*h^2/8)- (b^2*h^2/9), making the denominator as 72, we have (9-8) /72*(b^2*h^2). In the end, we will have (+1/72)(h^2)(b^2), which will be the value of the product of inertia at the C.G. for the right angle triangle.
