(a) Considering only buckling in the plane of the structure shown and using Euler’s formula, determine the value of θ between 0 and 90° for which the allowable magnitude of the load P is maximum. (b) Determine the corresponding maximum value of P knowing that a factor of safety of 3.2 is required. Use E = 29 × 106 psi.
