Solution

The correct option is A $40 V$
The potential difference across inductor and capacitor will be opposite to each other and that of the resistor will be perpendicular to them. The resultant of three must be $50 V$ .
As we know, $V = \sqrt{{(V_{L} - V_{C})}^{2} + {V_{R}}^{2}}$
Hence,
$\sqrt{{(90 - 60)}^{2} + V_{R}^{2}} = 50$

$900 + V_{R}^{2} = 2500$

$V_{R}^{2} = 1600$

$V_{R} = 40 V$
