A thin rectangular polymer plate PQRS of width b = 361 mmand height a = 193 mm is shown in the figure. The plate is deformed so that corner Q is displaced upward by c = 3.1 mm and corner R is displaced leftward by the same amount. Determine the shear strain at corner P after deformation. a y = b S a urad
