Sơ đồ mạch: R1 nt {[R2 nt (R3 // R4)] // (Ra nt Rx)}
\(R_{34}=\dfrac{R_3\cdot R_4}{R_3+R_4}=\dfrac{12\cdot12}{12+12}=6\left(\text{Ω}\right)\)
\(R_{234}=R_2+R_{34}=4+6=10\left(\text{Ω}\right)\)
\(R_{ax}=R_a+R_x=1+4=5\left(\text{Ω}\right)\)
\(R_{234ax}=\dfrac{R_{234}\cdot R_{ax}}{R_{234}+R_{ax}}=\dfrac{10\cdot5}{10+5}=\dfrac{10}{3}\left(\text{Ω}\right)\)
\(R_{tđ}=R_1+R_{234ax}=10+\dfrac{10}{3}=\dfrac{40}{3}\left(\text{Ω}\right)\)
