solve by matlab
35. The area moment of inertia Ix0?? of a rectangle about the axis xo? passing through its centroid is Ixo??=121?bh3. The moment of inertia about an axis x that is parallel to xo? is given by Ix?=Ixo??+Adx2?, where A is the area of the rectangle, and dx? is the distance between the two axes. Write a MATLAB user-defined function that determines the area moment of inertia Ixc?? of a " T " beam about the axis that passes through its centroid (see drawing). For the function name and arguments use I×C=IxCT? Beam (w,h,t,d), where the input arguments w,h,t, and d are the dimensions shown in the figure, and the output argument Ixc is Ixe??. For finding the coordinate yc? of the of the centroid use the user-defined function centroidT from Problem 34 as a subfunction inside IxcTBeam. (The moment of inertia of a composite area is obtained by dividing the area into parts and adding the moments of inertia of the parts.) Use the function to determine the moment of inertia of a " T " beam with w=240mm,h=380mm,d=42mm, and t=60mm.
