$\cot x=-\sqrt{3}$

It is known that $\cot \frac{\pi}{6}=\sqrt{3}$

$	herefore \cot \left(\pi-\frac{\pi}{6}ight)=-\cot \frac{\pi}{6}=-\sqrt{3}$ and $\cot \left(2 \pi-\frac{\pi}{6}ight)=-\cot \frac{\pi}{6}=-\sqrt{3}$

i.e., $\cot \frac{5 \pi}{6}=-\sqrt{3}$ and $\cot \frac{11 \pi}{6}=-\sqrt{3}$

Therefore, the principal solutions are $x=\frac{5 \pi}{6}$ and $\frac{11 \pi}{6}$

Now, $\cot x=\cot \frac{5 \pi}{6}$

$\Rightarrow 	an x=	an \frac{5 \pi}{6}$       $\left[\cot x=\frac{1}{	an x}ight]$

$\Rightarrow x=n \pi+\frac{5 \pi}{6},$ where $n \in Z$

Therefore, the general solution is $x=n \pi+\frac{5 \pi}{6},$ where $n \in Z$
