Find the total equivalent resistance 'R'.
Find the current in R4.
Power dissipated = I2/R4.
Find the current in R4.
Power dissipated = I2/R4.

Total Resistance = 1.8k ohm.
Than,
I=185/1.8.
Then,
P = I^2*R.
211 mW.
Than,
I=185/1.8.
Then,
P = I^2*R.
211 mW.

Can you explain how came the total resistance in 1.8K ohm?

185/1.8k = 0.1019 A.
P = I(3/7.6)^2*R4 because current separates in a parallel circuit.
P = 0.04^2*4000 = 6.47 Watts?
Can somebody explain my mistake?

Solve reversely by balancing circuit using given data. Its so simple their for I can't solved here.

By doing with voltage divider:
Voltage output on R3 is 20.56 volts.
Therefore: P = V^2/R4.
= 20.56^2/2K.
= 211 mW.
Voltage output on R3 is 20.56 volts.
Therefore: P = V^2/R4.
= 20.56^2/2K.
= 211 mW.

Current over R2=185v /4.5k ohm=41.1 mA.
Voltage across R2=4k * 41.1 mA=164.4V.
Voltage across R3 = 185 - 164.4=20.6V.
Power over R3=20.6V*(20.6V/1kohm) = 424.6mW.
Voltage across R2=4k * 41.1 mA=164.4V.
Voltage across R3 = 185 - 164.4=20.6V.
Power over R3=20.6V*(20.6V/1kohm) = 424.6mW.

First, convert R1, R2, R3 delta network into star. We get star resistance as 3/2,3/8,1/2.
Now, by using nodal analysis, find out voltage at R4, it is 20.55, then power is V * V/R = 211.
