If we apply the trigonometric identities
we get
With that, turns into
We know that , so in quadrant I is a solution.
We know that there is an angle with the same cosine in quadrant IV.
I think of that angle as , but the coterminal angle between and is
-->
That is the other solution.
Verification:

sin(x+(pi/6))-sin(x-(pi/6))=1/2
sin(x)cos(pi/2)+cos(x)sin(pi/2)-[sin(x)cos(pi/2)-cos(x)sin(pi/2)]=1/2
2cos(x)*1/2=1/2
cos(x)=1/2
x=pi/3 or x=5*pi/3
