just method .... havnt really solved it ....

R2R/R2+R + R1 = R

solve for R[Rnetwork] .........

Vab = i R .....

i = Vab/R .....

i thru R2 = SAY i1

i1R2 = i2R

i1 + i2 = Vab/R ....

i1R2 = Vab/2 ...............

solve and get R1/R2

The method is very simple ..

this question has something hidden..

the question statement itself says that R(the effective resistance) is equal to R2!!

( why? )

now we know that R= R1+R/2

thus, R1=R/2
R1/R=2

but R=R2

R1/R2=1/2
