Using the technique of integration, its moment of inertia about
\begin{aligned} & I=\frac{1}{2} M a^2\left(1-\frac{2}{3} \sin ^2 \frac{\theta}{2}\right) \\ & I=\frac{1}{2} \times 1 \times 1^2\left(1-\frac{2}{3} \sin ^2 \frac{\pi}{6}\right) \\ & I=\frac{1}{2}\left[1-\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{1}{4}\right] \\ & I=\frac{1}{2}\left[1-\frac{1}{6}\right]=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{5}{6}=\frac{5}{12} \mathrm{~kg}-\mathrm{m}^2 \end{aligned}
