Question : If $\operatorname{tan} 15^{\circ}=2-\sqrt{3}$, then the value of $\operatorname{tan} 15^{\circ} \operatorname{cot} 75^{\circ}+\operatorname{tan} 75^{\circ} \operatorname{cot} 15^{\circ}$ is:
Option 1: 6
Option 2: 10
Option 3: 8
Option 4: 14
Correct Answer: 14
Solution : Given: $\tan 15°= 2 - \sqrt{3}$ and $\cot 15° = \frac{1}{\tan15°}=\frac{1}{(2 - \sqrt{3})} =2+\sqrt{3}$ [on rationalizing] $\tan 15° × \cot 75° + \tan 75° × \cot 15°$ = $\tan 15° × \cot (90° – 15°) + \tan (90° – 15°) × \cot 15°$ = $\tan
Question : In triangle ABC, AD BE and CF are the medians intersecting at point G and the area of triangle ABC is 156 cm2. What is the area (in cm2) of triangle FGE?
Option 1: 13
Option 2: 26
Option 3: 39
Option 4: 52
Correct Answer: 13
Solution : AD, BE and CF are the median intersecting at point G $\therefore$ Area of joining the points D, E and F would be $\frac{1}{4}$th of $\triangle ABC$ Area of of $\triangle DEF=\frac{1}{4}\times156=39 \;cm^2$ G will be the centroid of the triangle. Area of $\triangle FGE$
