Find all solution of the equation in the interval [0,2pi)
4cos(x) = sin^2(x) + 4
4cos(x) = 1 - cos^2(x) + 4
cos^2 + 4cos - 5 = 0
(cos + 5)*(cos - 1) = 0
cos = -5 (Ignore)
=================
cos = 1
x = 0

4cos(x) = ((sin^2)(x)) + 4
4cos x =(1-cos^2 (x))+4
cos^2x+4 cos x-5=0
(cos (x) +5)(cos (x)-1)=0
cos x=1
x=0 on the interval [0,2pi)
at 0 degrees, cos x=1
4=0+4
