The correct answer is:
For (from the graph).In this situation, the circuit can be drawn as shown in figure .

[current through R2 will be zero because we have a short circuit across ]
Here
or ...(1)
current will not flow through , it will be open circuit.
In this situation, the circuit can be drawn as shown figure .

Figure (B)
Now (given)
...(2)
from Eqs. (1) and (2)
