### Problem Statement

**a) Determine the equivalent inductance of the following circuit:**

### Circuit Description

The given circuit consists of inductors arranged in both series and parallel configurations:

- **Series Configuration on the Right Branch:**
  - A 10 mH inductor is in series with a 60 mH inductor.

- **Parallel Configuration on the Middle Branch:**
  - The combination of the 10 mH and 60 mH inductors is in parallel with a 20 mH inductor.

- **Parallel Configuration on the Bottom Branch:**
  - The resulting parallel combination of the 10 mH, 60 mH, and 20 mH inductors is in parallel with a 30 mH inductor.

- **Series Configuration on the Left:**
  - The entire right-side combination is in series with a 25 mH inductor between points `a` and `b`.

### Explanation

To determine the equivalent inductance between points `a` and `b`, follow these steps:

1. **Compute Inductance in Series:**
   - Add the series inductors: \( L_{\text{series}} = 10 \, \text{mH} + 60 \, \text{mH} = 70 \, \text{mH} \).

2. **Compute Parallel Inductance (Top and Middle):**
   - The total inductance for parallel inductors is given by: 
     \[
     \frac{1}{L_{\text{parallel1}}} = \frac{1}{70 \, \text{mH}} + \frac{1}{20 \, \text{mH}}
     \]
   - Calculate \( L_{\text{parallel1}} \).

3. **Compute Parallel Inductance (Including Bottom):**
   - Combine the result with 30 mH:
     \[
     \frac{1}{L_{\text{parallel2}}} = \frac{1}{L_{\text{parallel1}}} + \frac{1}{30 \, \text{mH}}
     \]
   - Calculate \( L_{\text{parallel2}} \).

4. **Add the Series Inductor on the Left:**
   - Add the 25 mH series inductor to find the total equivalent inductance:
     \[
     L_{\text{eq}} = L_{\text{parallel2
