You should be able to force reset it, but if you can't remember your Gmail address and password, you won't be able to use it after reset anyway, as it will still be linked to your Google account even if the device password is no longer on it.
If you have access to your Gmail account on a different device, you can change your password there and then log back in to your tablet with the new password
