        The solution in the post by @MathLover1 is  INCORRECT.
        I came to bring a correct solution.

....use identity 



...use identity 





...factor





If    then   = 0  or   =  radians.

If    then   = .


ANSWER.  In the given interval, there are three and only three solutions, 

         x = 0,   x =  = 1.571 radians  and   x =  = 3.142 radians (rounded as requested).

Solved (correctly)


=======================


The post is written INCORRECTLY.

If you need the solution in the interval [0,),
then you do not need to mention about "an arbitrary integer k".
