The parallel axis theorem for the moment of inertia matrix I is derived by
considering the mass moment of inertia of the object O about two parallel axes,
I ee about e and I e 0 e 0 about e 0 . I e 0 e 0
is given by
I e 0 e 0 ¼ e 0
I 0

Let d be a vector perpendicular to both e and e 0 and equal in magnitude to the
perpendicular distance between e and e 0 , thus x 0 ¼

then recalling the definitions (A.119) of the mass M O of O and (A.120) of the center
