To find the measure of angle \( R \) in triangle \( JRW \), you can use the fact that the sum of the angles in any triangle is always \( 180^\circ \).
Given:
- \( \angle J = 47^\circ \)
- \( \angle W = 15^\circ \)
You can find \( \angle R \) using the formula:
\[ \angle R = 180^\circ - \angle J - \angle W \]
Substituting the values:
\[ \angle R = 180^\circ - 47^\circ - 15^\circ \]
Calculating it:
\[ \angle R = 180^\circ - 62^\circ = 118^\circ \]
Thus, the measure of angle \( R \) is \( 118^\circ \).
