Question

Hi could i please have the workings out and answer for the question attached.

If possible could you write down any formulas used.

 

Thank you! :)

The arms of a Wheatstone bridge ABCD have the following resistances:
AB: R, = 1,000 + 1.0%
BC: R; = 100 ± 0.5%
CD: unknown resistance Ry
DA: R3 = 432.5 + 0.2%
Determine the value of the unknown resistance and its accuracy of measurement.
