in this each digit will occur at each place 4!/4 times that is 6 times
so at units place sum = 6* (1+2+3+4) =60
similarly we can find out for each of the tens, hundreds and thousands place.......Is this approach correct?
u have solved almost whole of the question,likewise it will same for ten's and hundred's place i.e 60.
so total is 60
60
60

hi puys .. this may sound naive to you but i have a doubt here ..
we say the area of triangle(attached) can be expressed as =
1/2 *bc sinA = 1/2 * ab sinC = 1/2 * ac sinB
can anyone please prove this for me ..
and also is Trignometry restricted to rt angles only ??
PS : I am not able to upload the pic of the triangle, dunno why its giving an error .. please consider ab,bc and ac as the sides of a triangle opposite to angles C,A and B respectively.
randeep... stopped dreaming !!!.. time 2 do sumthin real

consider any triangle ABC
drop perpendicular BD from point B to side AC
now, BD = AB*SINA
area of triangle = 1/2*BD*AC = 1/2*AB*SINA*AC=1/2*AB*AC*SINA=1/2*b*c*sinA
