How to do Multi-loop Circuits

There is a type of resistor-battery circuit that is strange to the degree we cannot find the total resistance due to the presence of multiple batteries.  The trick, then, is to treat each part or loop of the circuit as an independent circuit, and use Kirchhoff's voltage rule to set up loop equations: the battery voltage = sum of voltages of components in the circuit. Check it out!
