(c) Let equivalent resistance between $A$ and $B$ is $R'$, so given circuit can be reduced as follows
$R' = R + \frac{{2R \times R'}}{{(2R + R')}} \Rightarrow {R'^2} - RR' - 2{R^2} = 0$
On solving the equation we get $R' = 2R$.
$R' = R + \frac{{2R \times R'}}{{(2R + R')}} \Rightarrow {R'^2} - RR' - 2{R^2} = 0$
On solving the equation we get $R' = 2R$.
