It follows, therefore, that if we know the value, in anysystem of units, of one of the resistances, Ru R^ R3, or Ri, an(i tneratio of any two of the remaining three, we can determine thevalue of the other at once in the same system of units. Thus,suppose Ave know that Rt = 10 units, and suppose, further, wefind by actual experiment that R
