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