Steiner’s theorem – a theorem related to the analysis of moments of inertia. For geometric moments of inertia, it states that the moment of inertia of a figure about any axis is equal to the sum of the moment of inertia about a parallel axis passing through the centroid of the figure and the product of the area of the figure and the square of the distance between the two axes.
See an example of how to use Steiner’s theorem to calculate moments of inertia with respect to the central axis.
