For pure shear:
Stress in x-direction is 0.
Stress in y-direction is 0.
Maximum principal stress:
(σ x + σ y)/2 + (1/2)* {√( σ x - σ y)^2 + 4(shear stress)^2 }
So, Ans = 80N/mm^2.
Stress in x-direction is 0.
Stress in y-direction is 0.
Maximum principal stress:
(σ x + σ y)/2 + (1/2)* {√( σ x - σ y)^2 + 4(shear stress)^2 }
So, Ans = 80N/mm^2.

For pure shear 6x & 6y are 0 hence t max = txy.
