2 A uniform lamina is in the shape of a rectangle \(A B C D\) and a square \(E F G H\), as shown in the diagram.
The length \(A B\) is 20 cm , the length \(B C\) is 30 cm , the length \(D E\) is 5 cm and the length \(E F\) is 10 cm .
The point \(P\) is the midpoint of \(A B\) and the point \(Q\) is the midpoint of \(H G\).

- Explain why the centre of mass of the lamina lies on \(P Q\).
- Find the distance of the centre of mass of the lamina from \(A B\).
- The lamina is freely suspended from \(A\).
Find, to the nearest degree, the angle between \(A D\) and the vertical when the lamina is in equilibrium.
