Converting Wheatstone Bridge: Possible or Not?

[carrotcake10]

In the attachment below, I have a picture of both an original wheatstone bridge and my attempt at converting it to a more familiar looking circuit. Is what I did correct/even possible? I just want to get a better understanding of these types of circuits.

Thank you for your time!

Yes, both circuits are equivalent, but I don't see any resemblance to a Wheatstone Bridge.

Thanks for the clarification. Just calling it what the prof does. I also looked around on the web at examples and thought that it wasn't quite the same.

Thanks again!
