Resistance, R = * L / A
the wire should remain copper, so we cannot change resistivity.
1) Increasing or decreasing length of copper wire to increase or decrease resistance respectively (keeping diameter constant).
2) Increasing or decreasing the diameter of copper wire to decrease or increase resistance respectively, by changing the cross sectional area (keeping length constant).
3) changing length as well as diameter simultaneously to change resistance.
