White to move to mate in 2

Rd2 and then Rh2 or Rh3 depending on how black moves.
I'm not too familiar with chess notation so hope I got that right
Correct, avoiding the stalemate trap and opening the door for the rook on a3 to swing over and deliver mate with a beautiful sacrifice.
Still not mate in 2:
Rd2 - Qxe4
Rh2 - Qh4
Rxh4#
If the queen leaves the backrank, you can take the bishop with checkmate: Rd2 - Qxe4 - Rxd8# :)
Oh! Indeed
