AI Explanation

The correct answer is C) R. The tool labeled "R" in the illustration GS-0090 would be the best choice for performing a right-hand facing operation on a workpiece. This is because a right-hand facing operation requires a tool with a cutting edge that is angled or swept to the right, which the "R" tool is designed to provide. The other tool options (P, Q, and V) are not specifically suited for right-hand facing operations.
