Detailed Solution & Explanation

Let's trace the relations step-by-step:
1. 'my friend's mother': The friend's mother.
2. 'brother-in-law of my friend's mother': This is either the brother of the friend's father (paternal uncle) or the husband of the mother's sister (maternal uncle by marriage).
3. 'youngest daughter of the brother-in-law': The daughter of the friend's uncle.
The daughter of one's uncle is one's Cousin. Therefore, the girl is related to R's friend as a Cousin.
Note: The textbook answer key contains a typographical error marking this as Option B (Daughter). The correct option is Option A (Cousin).
Hence, **Option A** is the correct answer.
