Consider an irregularly shaped planar lamina of uniform density , bounded by graphs , and . The mass of this region is given by:



 , where A is the area of the region


The moments about the x- and y-axes are given by:




The center of mass is given by:




We are given ,  


Refer to the attached image. The plot of is red in color.


Let's evaluate the area of the region,
















By symmetry, 






The coordinates of the center of mass are  are
