Let $$S = \left\{ {x \in \left( { - \pi ,\pi } \right):x \ne 0, \pm {\pi \over 2}} \right\}.$$ The sum of all distinct solutions of the equation $$\sqrt 3 \,\sec x + \cos ec\,x + 2\left( {\tan x - \cot x} \right) = 0$$ in the set S is equal to

Let $$ - {\pi \over 6} < \theta < - {\pi \over {12}}.$$ Suppose $${\alpha _1}$$ and $${\beta_1}$$ are the roots of the equation $${x^2} - 2x\sec \theta + 1 = 0$$ and $${\alpha _2}$$ and $${\beta _2}$$ are the roots of the equation $${x^2} + 2x\,\tan \theta - 1 = 0.$$ $$If\,{\alpha _1} > {\beta _1}$$ and $${\alpha _2} > {\beta _2},$$ then $${\alpha _1} + {\beta _2}$$ equals

A debate club consists of 6 girls and 4 boys. A team of 4 members is to be select from this club including the selection of a captain (from among these 4 members ) for the team. If the team has to include at most one boy, then the number of ways of selecting the team is

Let $$m$$ be the smallest positive integer such that the coefficient of $${x^2}$$ in the expansion of $${\left( {1 + x} \right)^2} + {\left( {1 + x} \right)^3} + ........ + {\left( {1 + x} \right)^{49}} + {\left( {1 + mx} \right)^{50}}\,\,$$ is $$\left( {3n + 1} \right)\,{}^{51}{C_3}$$ for some positive integer $$n$$. Then the value of $$n$$ is
