    there is not any necessary theory this is only sign convention. if we assign a loop and we are going from negative to positive it means rise in potential then we take positive sign and if we assign the loop direction in positive to negative it means we are coming from higher potential to lower potential then we use negative sign, otherwise not any such theory.

    ma'am 1st eqn should have been i1r1+(i1-i2)r2-E1=0

    now let me know, if still any doubts

    eduncle-logo-app

    resistance is taken as fall in potential because it is passive element?

    eduncle-logo-app

    ma'am what about inductor and capacitor?

    eduncle-logo-app

    inductor and capacitor are also passive components
