Question

I know its something obviously simple, but I can not figure itout!! Three 0.47kg particles form an equilateral triangle with 0.80msides. The particles are connected by rods of negligible mass. Whatis the rotational inertia of this rigid body about a) an axis that passes through one of the particles and isparallel to the rod connecting the other two b)an axis that passes through the midpoint of one of the sidesand is perpendicular to the plane of the triangle c) an axis that is parallel to one side of the triangle andpasses through the midpoints of the other two sides Thanks in advance!!
