# Note: In the part (iv), the wrong value of I_B1 and bita is putted, these two value is putted of the Example 7.1
#          (i.e. I_B1= 19.8 mA and bita= 50) whereas in this example the value of bita is given 100 and the value of 
#          of I_B1 is calculated as 10 mA. So the answer of the last part of this example is wrong.
Part (i) :-
 The value of V_A = 9.2 volt
 The value of V_B = 6.4 volt

Part (ii) :-
 The base current of T1    = 10 mA
 The emitter current of T2 = 26.0 mA

Part (iii) :-
 Current through zener diode = 40.4 mA
 Power dissipation           = 10.0 watt
