Correct Answer: 25 degrees
Solution :
Given, $\angle \mathrm{P}=3\mathrm{x}+5$ and $\angle \mathrm{R}=4\mathrm{x}$
Since $\angle \mathrm{P}$ and $\angle \mathrm{R}$ are opposite to each other in a cyclic quadrilateral, we have $\angle \mathrm{P}+\angle \mathrm{R}=180^\circ$
⇒ $3\mathrm{x}+5+4\mathrm{x}=180^\circ$
⇒ $\mathrm{x}=25^\circ$
Hence, the correct answer is 25 degrees.
