Solve:
,
-----------------
2sinx*cosx = cosx
2sinx*cosx - cosx 0
cos(x)*(2sin(x) - 1) = 0
cos(x) = 0
x = pi/2, -pi/2, -3pi/2
------
2sin(x) = 1
sin(x) = 1/2
x = -11pi/6, -7pi/6, pi/6, 5pi/6

Since
we can write:
Multiply by
Use the unit circle, recalling that sin of the angle is the
-coordinate of the point of intersection of the terminal ray with the unit circle and find all angles where
in your given interval. Note that the given interval is one and a half trips around the circle. Hint: start at
and go backwards.
