An equilateral triangle ABC is fabricated by three identical rods each of mass m and length l. Then the moment of inertia of the triangular frame about an axis passing through vertex A and perpendicular to the plane of the triangular frame is 

a
43ml2
b
34ml2
c
23ml2
d
32ml2

detailed solution

Correct option is D

IA=IAB+IBC+IACNow AM=lsin60o=3l2∴ IA=13ml2+112ml2+m3l22+13ml2=23ml2+56ml2=32ml2
