For the resistor combination, find the equivalent resistance between M and N.

As per what is given, the resistance of the given resistors are = R1, R2, R3, and R4. In order to determine the Equivalent Resistance (R_eq) between M and N, we have to assume the following diagram:

Combination of Resistors

From the figure, R3 and R4 are in parallel combinations. We are already aware that the total resistance can be expressed as follows when two conductors are connected in parallel:

Thus,

1/Rp = 1/R3 + 1/R4

= R4 + R3/R3 x R4

= R3 $\times$ R4/ R4 + R3

Now, it is clear that R1, R2 and Rp are in series. Hence, the equivalent resistance can be represented as:

⇒ R_eq = R1 + R2 + Rp

= R1 + R2 + R3 x R4/ R4 + R3

Therefore, the equivalent resistance, (R_eq) between points M and N equals R1 + R2 + R3 x R4/ R4 +R3.
