my public ip is 182.180 50.174 and my private ip is 192.168.10.1 which is my default gateway
Only one of them is a public ip. It could be ur public ip or the gateway for ur public ip.
So if your connection is a simple lan to wan connection, that is, if you don't do VPN then your ISP should give two public ip's stating here is your public ip and this is the default gateway for ur public ip.
Is there a workstation where internet works? Is so, try googling what is ur public ip.
Then do a tracert to 8.8.8.8 maybe and let me know.
If your wan interface of the firewall is directly connected to the modem then,
WAN interface of firewall 182.180 50.174<------->LAN interface of modem and typically that should be something like 182.180 50.173 for eg.
i.e Your WAN ip of firewall and the modem should have ip in same subnets right. That's why I told u that ur isp should give 2 public ip.
this is my WAN interface now i try to configure WAN interface and LAN Interface , and i want to give 192.168.10.50 ip to LAN by which i can access my fortigate device and i don't need dhcp server of fortigate because i have already DHCP in my modem . Now please guide me what shoud i do which i will give in wan and Lan ... and and i make a policy to allow internet and if any other policy or routing is required the please also share ??

From what you have written it sounds like you are missing the basic networking knowledge to get all this working. I'm not trying to be a d!ck, but if you don't have the skeleton of networking down, then it is as if you are trying to build a castle on a sand dune. The foundation needs to be solid to get a good solid network built. The ISP's modem has the public IP address and is handing off (routing) a private range to the inside. Your Fortigate then would ride that INSIDE (private) subnet and hand off another private IP subnet to the Fortigate's LAN (internal). DHCP is not a routable protocol (UDP) so it needs a helper in the Fortigate so your internal clients could get DHCP from the ISP's modem. In my opinion, if the ISP's modem is Ethernet connected to the ISP, I would chuck it and put the Fortigate on the edge. This will save you tons of headaches in the future.this is my WAN interface now i try to configure WAN interface and LAN Interface , and i want to give 192.168.10.50 ip to LAN by which i can access my fortigate device and i don't need dhcp server of fortigate because i have already DHCP in my modem .

Well versed, Bob, and so true.
Can i get your skype so i will discuss with you i am really stuck for last 4 days
Make sure the edge device your ISP gave you is in bridge mode. This way it passes the public IP address through to your Fortigate. Otherwise, it will route the public IP and give you a private IP address off of one of it's internal ports.
