To solve this problem, we need to use the equations for principal stresses and maximum shear stresses.

(a) The principal stresses can be calculated using the following equation:

σ1,2 = (σx + σy)/2 ± √((σx - σy)/2)^2 + τxy^2)

where σ1 and σ2 are the principal stresses.

Substituting the given values, we get:

σ1,2 = (86 MPa - 28 MPa)/2 ± √((86 MPa + 28 MPa)/2)^2 + (-32 MPa)^2)

σ1 = 56.65 MPa, σ2 = -98.65 MPa

The positive value of σ1 represents the maximum tensile stress and the negative value of σ2 represents the maximum compressive stress.

(b) The maximum shear stress can be calculated using the following equation:

τmax = √(τxy^2 + ((σx - σy)/2)^2)

Substituting the given values, we get:

 τmax = √((-32 MPa)^2 + ((86 MPa - (-28 MPa))/2)^2)

τmax = 46.17 MPa

Therefore, the answer to part (a) is that the principal stresses are σ1 = 56.65 MPa (maximum tensile) and σ2 = -98.65 MPa (maximum
compressive). To show them on a properly oriented element, σ1 would act perpendicular to the plane of the element and σ2 would act parallel to
the plane of the element.

The answer to part (b) is that the maximum shear stress is τmax = 46.17 MPa. To show it on a properly oriented element, τmax would act on a
diagonal plane of the element.
