I_x =I_y =((ma^2 )/(12))  so   I_z =I_x +I_y =((ma^2 )/6)  I_(z′) =I_z +m((a/( (√2))))^2 =((ma^2 )/6)+((ma^2 )/2)     =((2ma^2 )/3) .
$${I}_{{x}} ={I}_{{y}} =\frac{{ma}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{12}} \\ $$$${so}\:\:\:{I}_{{z}} ={I}_{{x}} +{I}_{{y}} =\frac{{ma}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{6}} \\ $$$${I}_{{z}'} ={I}_{{z}} +{m}\left(\frac{{a}}{\:\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} =\frac{{ma}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{6}}+\frac{{ma}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\:\:\:=\frac{\mathrm{2}{ma}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{3}}\:. \\ $$

I_(z′) =∫_0 ^( a) ∫_0 ^( a) ρ(x^2 +y^2 )dxdy  =ρ∫_0 ^( a) ((a^3 /3)+ay^2 )dy  =ρ((a^3 /3)×a+a×(a^3 /3))  =((2ρa^4 )/3)  =((2ma^2 )/3)
$${I}_{{z}'} =\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\:{a}} \int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\:{a}} \rho\left({x}^{\mathrm{2}} +{y}^{\mathrm{2}} \right){dxdy} \\ $$$$=\rho\int_{\mathrm{0}} ^{\:{a}} \left(\frac{{a}^{\mathrm{3}} }{\mathrm{3}}+{ay}^{\mathrm{2}} \right){dy} \\ $$$$=\rho\left(\frac{{a}^{\mathrm{3}} }{\mathrm{3}}×{a}+{a}×\frac{{a}^{\mathrm{3}} }{\mathrm{3}}\right) \\ $$$$=\frac{\mathrm{2}\rho{a}^{\mathrm{4}} }{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$=\frac{\mathrm{2}{ma}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$

But I_x =I_y =4×((ma^2 )/(12))=((ma^2 )/3)  ?
$${But}\:{I}_{{x}} ={I}_{{y}} =\mathrm{4}×\frac{{ma}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{12}}=\frac{{ma}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{3}} \\ $$$$? \\ $$

But whats wrong with which I posted?

why the 4 ?
$${why}\:{the}\:\mathrm{4}\:? \\ $$
Commented by Tinkutara last updated on 25/Nov/17
Because of symmetry there are 4  rods and each have ((ml^2 )/(12))

its a plate or slab, there are not  any rods. further see image below.

Yes but how this ((ml^2 )/(12))?
$${Yes}\:{but}\:{how}\:{this}\:\frac{{ml}^{\mathrm{2}} }{\mathrm{12}}? \\ $$

dm=(m/(Lbt))(btdr)=(m/L)dr  I=∫r^2 dm = (m/L)∫_(−L/2) ^(   L/2)  r^2 dr      =(m/L)((L^3 /(24))+(L^3 /(24))) = ((mL^2 )/(12)) .
