The state of strain at the point on the pin leaf has components of ϵx=200(10−6) , ϵy=180(10−6) , and γxy=−300(10−6) . (Figure 1)
Part A- Use the strain transformation equations and determine the normal strain in the x-direction on an element oriented at an angle of θ=60∘ counterclockwise from the original position.
Part B- Determine the shear strain along the xy plain.

Part C- Determine the normal strain in the y-direction.
