Estimate the shear strain yxy at point D with respect to the xx and yy directions.

A rectangle ABCD has width 400 mm (in the x-direction) and height 300 mm (in the y-direction). It deforms into the shape in the dashed lines. Point A (lowe right corner) moves to the right by 3 mm and upward by 2 mm, point B (upper right corner) moves to the right by 5 mm and upward by 4 mm, point C (upper left corner) moves to the right by 2 mm and upward by 2 mm.

### Estimating Shear Strain \(\gamma_{xy}\) at Point \(D\)

#### Problem Statement:
Estimate the shear strain \(\gamma_{xy}\) at point \(D\) with respect to the \(xx\) and \(yy\) directions.

#### Diagram Explanation:
- The diagram shows a quadrilateral with vertices \(A\), \(B\), \(C\), and \(D\). 
- The blue shaded area is the original shape, with point \(A\) placed at 0,0 in the coordinate system.
- The coordinates and displacements for various points are indicated:
  - The original and deformed coordinates of \(A\) are not shifted (0 shift).
  - Point \(B\) is shifted by an additional 5 mm in the y-direction and 4 mm in the x-direction.
  - Point \(C\) is shifted by an additional 2 mm in the y-direction and 2 mm in the x-direction.
  - Point \(D\) is shifted by an additional 3 mm in the x-direction only.
- Key dimensions are marked:
  - Height = 300 mm.
  - Base = 400 mm.
  - Various shifts (displacements) as specified for individual vertices.

#### Multiple Choice Options:
- A. 1.573 rad
- B. 1.559 rad
- C. 0.0496 rad
- D. 0.0116 rad

The correct answer can be calculated by considering the changes in angles and positions of points \(A\), \(B\), \(C\), and \(D\) with respect to the \(xx\) and \(yy\) directions. The shear strain \(\gamma_{xy}\) expresses the deformation due to shear stress and is represented by the change in angle between the original and deformed shapes:
\[
\gamma_{xy} = \tan^{-1} \left( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \right)
\]

Given detailed measurements, you can deduce the shear strain by considering the geometric transformations illustrated in the diagram.

#### Options Analysis
- The provided options give us estimated possible shear strain values, measured in radians:
  - 1.573 rad
  - 1.559 rad
  - 0.0496 rad
  - 0.0116 rad
