Detailed Solution

If a1,a2,......,an  andb1,b2,......,bn  are 2n real numbers, then    (a1b1+a2b2+......anbn)2(a12+a22+......+an2)(b12+b22+.......+bn2).........(1)
Let     a1=acot9o,a2=bcot27o,a3=ccot63o,

a4=dcot81oand   b1=tan9o,b2=tan27o,

b3=tan63o,b4=tan81o
Now using(1), we get 
 (a+b+c+d)2(a2cot9o+b2cot27o+c2cot63o+d2cot81o)

(tan9o+tan27o+tan63o+tan81o).....(2)     
But a+b+c+d=10 (Given)
And  (tan9o+tan81o)+(tan27o+tan63o)
1sin9ocos9o+1sin27ocos27o=2sin18o+2sin54o
=  2514+25+14

=8[(5+1)+(51)4]=45   From  (2) we get
 10045(a2cot9o+b2cot27o+c2cot63o+d2cot81o)
 a2cot9o+b2cot27o+c2cot63o+d2cot81o255
 =55=5nn=5
