Resistance of each side is 5 ohm as resistance is directly proportional to length then along diagonal it is parallel combination of two resistors 10 ohm each. So equivalent resistance is 10 ohm.Hope it clears. If u have doubts then please clearify. And if u like my answer then please approve answer.
