A \(12\) cm wire is given a shape of a right-angled triangle \(\mathrm{ABC}\) having sides \(3\) cm, \(4\) cm and \(5\) cm, as shown in the figure. The resistance between two ends \((\mathrm{AB, BC, CA})\) of the respective sides are measured one by one by a multi-meter. The resistances will be in the ratio:
        
1. \(9:16:25\)
2. \(27:32:35\)
3. \(21:24:25\)
4. \(3:4:5\)

A ring is made of a wire having a resistance of \(R_0=12~\Omega.\). Find points \(\mathrm{A}\) and \(\mathrm{B}\), as shown in the figure, at which a current-carrying conductor should be connected so that the resistance \(R\) of the subcircuit between these points equals \(\frac{8}{3}~\Omega\)?
      
1. \(\frac{l_1}{l_2} = \frac{5}{8}\)
2. \(\frac{l_1}{l_2} = \frac{1}{3}\)
3. \(\frac{l_1}{l_2} = \frac{3}{8}\)
4. \(\frac{l_1}{l_2} = \frac{1}{2}\)
