Question
How to solve for the centroid of the composite body using the principle of moments and treat each part as a finite element of the whole figure (Show a step by step solution)

Transcribed Image Text:**Problem 6.2** - Locate the centroid of the composite crosshatched area.
**Diagram Description:**
The diagram shows a right triangle placed on a grid with its base on the x-axis. The dimensions are as follows:
- **Base**: 78 mm along the x-axis.
- **Height**: 60 mm along the y-axis.
- A horizontal line is drawn parallel to the x-axis, 21 mm from the origin (0,0), indicating a level within the triangle.
The crosshatched area is the composite section of the triangle, and the goal is to locate the centroid of this area.
