Find the equivalent resistance between two points in terms of R

AI Thread Summary
To receive assistance in solving the equivalent resistance problem, users must demonstrate credible effort by sharing their attempted solutions and approaches. Simply stating a lack of progress is insufficient; detailed attempts are required for meaningful help. The forum emphasizes that solutions will not be provided, only hints and guidance, to encourage learning. Users are encouraged to understand the criteria for resistors in series and parallel and to identify these combinations in their circuit. The thread has been closed, and users are advised to start a new thread with their work for further assistance.

According to our rules, to receive help, you need to show some credible effort towards answering the question(s). How about telling us what you do know and how you would approach this problem?

Please read, understand and follow our homework guidelines, especially item 4, here
https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/homework-help-guidelines-for-students-and-helpers.686781/
I attempted to solve the problem using the formulas I have provided above, but my answers are not matching, also I tried to search for similar problems in the internet but found nothing
 
OK, but "I tried and didn't get anywhere" is not sufficient attempt at a solution. Please post what you tried and what you got. We would prefer that you use LaTeX which is to learn. Click the link "LaTeX guide", lower left, to see how to do it.
 
New user is reminded that they always need to show their best efforts on schoolwork problems before we can offer tutorial help.

Thank you, I will learn how to do it. I am just learning and new here, so would appreciate solution for my problem, the problem seems very unique for me as it's really challenging for me to determine whether the resistors are in parallel or in series, otherwise I wouldn't post it here.

We don't supply solutions, only hints and you must make and show an effort to use them. So here are some.

What are the criteria for resistors being in series?
What are the criteria for resistors being in parallel?
Do you see any resistor combination in this circuit that satisfies these criteria? If so identify them.

As has been explained to you several times in this thread so far, we do not give solutions to schoolwork questions. We can provide hints, ask probing questions, find mistakes, etc., but the student must do the bulk of the work on schoolwork questions. Please see the PF Rules link under INFO at the top of the page.

This thread will remain closed. Please start a new thread and show your work if you want tutorial help. Thank you.
