MCQ
The theorem of perpendicular axes is applicable for:
  • Only planar bodies.
  • B
    Only regular shaped bodies.
  • C
    Only three dimensional bodies.
  • D
    None of the above.

Answer

Correct option: A.
Only planar bodies.
Theorem of perpendicular axes is applicable for planar bodies only.
We generally use this theorem for regular shaped bodies but it could be applied to irregular shaped bodies as well.
