Generally R=\frac{\rho (length)}{Area of cross section}
Apply this here
the dimensions of conductor of specific resistance Ï is shown above what is the resistance across AB ?
Length is to be taken along the direction which current will flow when the resistor is connected to a battery
see current is flowing from A to B.so the length is along the current flow direction bcos they are the terminals.current will flow from positive to negative potential.
