The resistors in Wheatstone bridge circuit as shown below are given as R₁ = 3 k?, R₂ = 7 k?, R3 = 3 k?, and the source voltage is V₁ = 10 V. The voltmeter as shown by a circle in the diagram is almost an open circuit, so its current can be neglected.

(a) If the measured Rx = 12 k?, calculate the voltmeter reading Vo = VL - VR;
(b) The balance condition makes Vo =OV. What is the value of Rx at balance?
