  1. Show that the equation \(\tan \left( 30 ^ { \circ } + \theta \right) = 2 \tan \left( 60 ^ { \circ } - \theta \right)\) can be written in the form $$\tan ^ { 2 } \theta + ( 6 \sqrt { } 3 ) \tan \theta - 5 = 0$$
  2. Hence, or otherwise, solve the equation $$\tan \left( 30 ^ { \circ } + \theta \right) = 2 \tan \left( 60 ^ { \circ } - \theta \right) ,$$ for \(0 ^ { \circ } \leqslant \theta \leqslant 180 ^ { \circ }\).
