A shaft's moment of inertia about an offset axis is found using the:

APartial pressure theory
BParticle motion method
CParallel axis theorem
DParallel line postulate
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Parallel axis theorem
1. The value about the centre is already known. 2. A shift of axis needs a correction term. 3. That correction is the parallel axis theorem. _Source: OpenStax University Physics Volume 1, Chapter 10, Fixed-Axis Rotation._
