dc.description	We show that the maximum or minimum impedance of a special parallel RLC studied in a previous paper can be found analytically, without using calculus. In fact, we show that the maximum or minimum value occurs when the driving frequency  is equal to o 1/ LC , a fact that was determined graphically in that previous paper. Furthermore, we show that either the maximum or minimum value is given by R  2 2  1 3 ,   where   L C R / / . Also, for the minimum impedance Z R R min    1 2 /3 3 /3, 2whereas for the maximum impedanceZ R R max    1 2 / .
