Solution to: Replacement Resistance

The circuit can be redrawn as follows:

Solution

The voltage at both ends of the middle resistance is now equal and therefore the circuit consists of two parallel parts, each consisting of two serial resistances.

Conclusion: The replacement resistance Rreplacement is 1 (1/Rreplacement = 1/(1+1) + 1/(1+1) ).
