sin(x) - tan(x) = 0

sin(x) - sin(x)/cos(x) = 0

sin(x)*cos(x)/cos(x) - sin(x)/cos(x) = 0

(sin(x)*cos(x) - sin(x))/cos(x) = 0

sin(x)*cos(x) - sin(x) = 0*cos(x)

sin(x)*cos(x) - sin(x) = 0

sin(x)( cos(x) - 1 ) = 0

sin(x) = 0 or cos(x) - 1 = 0

sin(x) = 0 or cos(x) = 1

x = arcsin(0) or x = arccos(1)

x = pi*n or x = 2pi*n

x = pi*n

So the solution set is the set of all x such that x = pi*n where n is an integer. This is of course if we're in radian mode.
