Which element of a shakespearean tragedy does romeo represent in act v, scene iii of romeo and juliet?
a flawed hero
a devious trickster
a wise mentor
a violent foil

a flawed hero

Romeo is a hero in the play. He's not a hero in that he's brave and courageous fighting off some evil monster. He's not really even considered brave for going against his family and marrying Juliet. Romeo barely considers the magnitude of his marriage to Juliet in terms of the family feud. He is acting completely on impulse. However, he is the hero that everyone is rooting for. Even though the prologue tells the audience that Romeo and Juliet will die at the end, the audience is cheering for them to survive, hoping the prologue is wrong. He is flawed in that he acts impulsively and out of desperation rather than with careful thought and consideration.

b is the correct answer
