Use this equation max shear stress =1/2(√(σ^2+4txy^2))
Then put the value of σ and txy.
σ=(-40-40) =80,
txy =(30+30) =60,
Max shear stress =1/2(√(80^2 +60^2)) = 50.
Then put the value of σ and txy.
σ=(-40-40) =80,
txy =(30+30) =60,
Max shear stress =1/2(√(80^2 +60^2)) = 50.

How is it 50 Mpa shouldn't it be 40 Mpa?

Max shear stress = sqrt[{(-40- 40) / 2}^2 + 30^2].
= sqrt[40^2 + 30^2].
= sqrt(2500).
= 50 mpa.
= sqrt[40^2 + 30^2].
= sqrt(2500).
= 50 mpa.

@Abhishek.
How it is txy= (30+30) =60, Please explain.
How it is txy= (30+30) =60, Please explain.

Given ,σx=-40
σy= +40
txy=+30
Formula: (1÷2)* √{(σx-σy)^2 +4txy^2}
(1÷2) * {(-40-(+40)^2 +4 * (30^2)}
Then 1÷2*(100)
Txy max=50MPA.
σy= +40
txy=+30
Formula: (1÷2)* √{(σx-σy)^2 +4txy^2}
(1÷2) * {(-40-(+40)^2 +4 * (30^2)}
Then 1÷2*(100)
Txy max=50MPA.

Apply compression sign for -40 it will become 40 so sum of 40 and 40 get 80. The easily we can get the result of 50.
