It's done using series<>parallel impedance conversions. The formulae are
in the ARRL Handbook, but it's all a bit tedious. In 1984 I wrote a
program called NETCALC to automate these processes, and it's
downloadable with full instructions from:
www.ifwtech.co.uk/g3sek/netcalc/netcalc.htm
The step-by-step worked example is exactly your pi-network problem.
