--------------------------------------------------------------------

Use the formula

sin(alpha)*cos(beta) + cos(alpha)*sin(beta) = sin(alpha+beta)

It is the formula for sine of the sum of arguments - one of fundamental formula of Trigonometry.

See, for example, the lesson Addition and subtraction formulas in this site.

When you apply this formula to the left side of your equation, you will get

= .

The general solution is = , k = 0, +/-1, +/-2, . . .

Hence, = , k = 0, +/-1, +/-2, . . .

For the given interval [, ) the solutions are for k = 0, 1, 2, . . . , 7.
