Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
When, a uniform wire of resistance
is shaped into a regular
-sided polygon, the resistance of each side will be

Let
be the resistance between adjacent corners of a regular polygon
The resistance of
side, 
Since two parts are parallel, therefore
