Normally you do not need to specify @usage in roxygen source files.
As Duncan noted, without seeing everything, we are only guessing, but I suspect that you have tried to combine manual @usage directives with @alias or @Rdfile directives in the roxygen for the other functions.
If my guesses are correct, I would put all of your descriptive text in one place, and simply use @Rdfile for the other functions. Roxygen can generate the usage automatically.
If either Duncan's hints or mine leave you still wondering what to do, please post a link to the source repository, and I will take a look.

Dear CRAN maintainers and R package developers, Respected Sirs, I am interested in submitting a package which I created in RStudio, that contains functions to compute the PDF,CDF and critical region of the distribution of sample correlation coeffecient :r. While running a R CMD check , it shows a warning() as follows : Bad \usage lines found in documentation object 'Rcor': Spdf(r,rho,n),Fpdf(r,rho,n),Hpdf(r,rho,n),Fcdf(a,rho,n),Hcdf(r,rho,n) Functions with \usage entries need to have the appropriate \alias entries, and all their arguments documented. The \usage entries must correspond to syntactically valid R code. Where the documentation for one of the R functions is given as follows :- #' PDF using Simulation #' #' @description used for computing the probability density functional value for the bivariate normal sample correlation coeffecient #' @usage Spdf(r,rho,n) #' @param r sample correlation coeffecient of the bivariate normal distribution sample #' @param rho population correlation coefficient of the bivariate normal distribution #' @param n sample size of the required Bivariate Normal Distribution #' @details uses Simulation to compute the PDF #' @return PDF of the sample correlation coeffecient distribution #' @author Souvik Nath <souvi...@gmail.com> ,Rituparna Sen #' @references Anderson,T.W.,(2003) An Introduction to Multivariate Statistical Analysis.Third Edition ,Chapter 4, Page No 125.

I have once submitted a copy of this package in CRAN few weeks ago. I realize that the files may have been removed and I need to resubmit them if required. Kind Regards, Souvik
