I'm pretty sure I need to find Rth using a test source but I can't seem to do it right. (A web form tells me my answer is wrong)


What I tried, I added a current source of 5A to node A. And deactivated the 12V source. The next step for me is to find Vx so I can add it up with R2 * 5A and get Vth. In the end I'll get Rth from, Vth/Ith. But I have failed to get a right answer.

im not very good in this myself
but i would use 1A as test source and than by using nodel analysis i would find the voltage at node a (lets call it Vab) then divide Vab by 1 = Vab= Rth
try it this way, it should be correct
