### Analysis of a Beam under Various Loads

#### Diagram Description:

The provided diagram illustrates a beam with several types of loads and supports. The beam is labeled with two reference points, A and B, and is subjected to the following loads:

1. A concentrated vertical load of 4 kN acting downward at a distance of 2 meters from the left end (point A).
2. A uniformly distributed load (UDL) of 1 kN/m applied between points A and B.
3. A triangular load varying from 1 kN/m to 3 kN/m over a span of 2 meters, starting from point B towards the right end of the beam.

#### Support Conditions:

- The beam is supported by a fixed support at point A, which prevents any translational and rotational movement.
- The beam is supported by a roller support at point B, which allows horizontal translation but restricts vertical movement and rotation.

#### Dimensional Details:

- The total length of the beam is 6 meters.
- The distance between point A and the position of the 4 kN load is 2 meters.
- The distance between point A and B is 4 meters.
- The distance between point B and the right end of the beam is 2 meters.

#### Load Distribution:

- **Concentrated Load:** A vertical force of 4 kN is positioned 2 meters from point A.
- **Uniformly Distributed Load (UDL):** The UDL of 1 kN/m extends from point A to point B (4 meters in length).
- **Triangular Load:** The triangular load varies linearly from 1 kN/m at point B to 3 kN/m at the right end of the beam over a 2-meter distance.

#### Steps to Analyze the Beam:

1. **Support Reactions:**
   - Calculate the reactions at supports A (fixed) and B (roller).
   - Summing moments about point A to find the reaction at B.
   - Summing vertical forces to find the vertical reaction at A.

2. **Shear Force and Bending Moment:**
   - Create shear force and bending moment diagrams by integrating the effects of the loads from left to right.
   - Account for the distributed loads by converting them into equivalent point loads at their centroids.
   - Apply the boundary conditions at supports to find constants of integration.

3. **Deflection:**
   - Use calculus to determine the def
