Correct Answer: $45^{\circ}$
Solution :
We know that the sum of the angles of a triangle = $180^{\circ}$
Let $\angle R = x$
Given: $2 \angle R-\angle P=\angle Q-\angle R$
⇒ $2x - \angle P = \angle Q -x$
⇒ $3x = \angle Q+\angle P$
Now, $\angle R + \angle Q + \angle P= 180^{\circ}$
⇒ $x+3x = 180^{\circ}$
⇒ $4x = 180^{\circ}$
⇒ $x= 45^{\circ}$
So, the value of $\angle R = 45^{\circ}$.
Hence, the correct answer is $45^{\circ}$.
