    Given cotA + cotB + cotC = sqrt3

    to prove triangle ABC is equilateral

    we prove this by assuming ABC to be equialteral and establishing the truth

    of the statement cotA + cotB + cotC = sqrt3

    since ABC is equialteral angleA=angleB=angleC=60 degrees

    cotA=cotB=CotC = cot60 = 1/sqrt3

    therefore cotA + cotB + cotC = 1/sqrt3 + 1/sqrt3 + 1/sqrt3

    =3/sqrt3

    =sqrt3 which is equal to the RHS (right hand side) of the expression

    hence our assumption that ABC is equilateral is true
