I =∫_0 ^(  2π) [∫_0 ^(  r)  ρr^2 (rdr)]dθ    = (ρ/4)∫_0 ^(  2π) a^4 cos^2 2θ dθ    = ((ρa^4 )/8)∫_0 ^(  2π) (1+cos 4θ)dθ     = ((𝛒a^4 𝛑)/4) .

$${I}\:=\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\:\:\mathrm{2}\pi} \left[\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\:\:{r}} \:\rho{r}^{\mathrm{2}} \left({rdr}\right)\right]{d}\theta \\ $$$$\:\:=\:\frac{\rho}{\mathrm{4}}\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\:\:\mathrm{2}\pi} {a}^{\mathrm{4}} \mathrm{cos}\:^{\mathrm{2}} \mathrm{2}\theta\:{d}\theta \\ $$$$\:\:=\:\frac{\rho{a}^{\mathrm{4}} }{\mathrm{8}}\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\:\:\mathrm{2}\pi} \left(\mathrm{1}+\mathrm{cos}\:\mathrm{4}\theta\right){d}\theta \\ $$$$\:\:\:=\:\frac{\boldsymbol{\rho{a}}^{\mathrm{4}} \boldsymbol{\pi}}{\mathrm{4}}\:. \\ $$

I=∫r^2 dm  = ∫r^2 ρ(dA)  A is area, ρ is mass per unit area.  I=∫_0 ^(  2π) ρr^2 (rdr)dθ .

$${I}=\int{r}^{\mathrm{2}} {dm}\:\:=\:\int{r}^{\mathrm{2}} \rho\left({dA}\right) \\ $$$${A}\:{is}\:{area},\:\rho\:{is}\:{mass}\:{per}\:{unit}\:{area}. \\ $$$${I}=\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\:\:\mathrm{2}\pi} \rho{r}^{\mathrm{2}} \left({rdr}\right){d}\theta\:. \\ $$
