Equivalent Resistance - Resistors Intertwined
I'm not sure what you mean. I'm still unsure about the short. A resistor has to be in parallel with the short to be shorted, right? So I don't believe the 3 ohm and the two 6 ohm resistors are shorted. If this is true, then I get to a point where the remaining resistors are not in parallel or...- Hurricane9

Equivalent Resistance - Resistors Intertwined
I suspected the trick was with that, but the idea of a short hasn't really been covered enough for me to be sure that was the case. Does it mean I can essentially take everything out but two 1 ohm resistors? Or is that too much taken out? I am unsure whether that 3 ohm resistor is shorted...- Hurricane9
