Thevenin's Theorem 1

The document discusses Thévenin's Theorem, which states that any two-terminal, linear bilateral DC network can be simplified into an equivalent circuit with a voltage source and a series resistor. It includes several problems that illustrate how to determine the Thévenin equivalent for different circuit configurations. The document serves as a guide for students in Electrical Circuits 1 at BRAC University.
