Evaluate : $\displaystyle \frac{2 \cos 30^{\circ}-\cot ^{3} 60^{\circ}}{\tan 30^{\circ}}$
Marking-scheme solution
$\displaystyle \sec (2 A-B)=\sqrt{2} \Rightarrow 2 A-B=45^{\circ}$ $\displaystyle \operatorname{cosec}(\mathrm{A}+\mathrm{B})=2 \Rightarrow \mathrm{~A}+\mathrm{B}=30^{\circ}$ On solving, $\displaystyle \mathrm{A}=25^{\circ}, \mathrm{B}=5^{\circ}$
OR
Evaluate: $\displaystyle \frac{2 \cos 30^{\circ}-\cot ^{3} 60^{\circ}}{\tan 30^{\circ}}$ \[\begin{array}{l}
\frac{2 \cos 30^{\circ}-\cot ^{3} 60^{\circ}}{\tan 30^{\circ}}=\frac{2 \times \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}-\left(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\right)^{3}}{\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}} \\
=\frac{8}{3}
\end{array}
