The angle whose sin is +1%2F2+ is +pi%2F6+
In the interval [ 0, pi ], the angle is:
+pi%2F6+, +5%2Api%2F6+
-------------------------
For the angle +pi%2F6+:
+2x+%2B+pi%2F3+=+pi%2F6+
+2x+=+-pi%2F6+
+x+=+-pi%2F12+
-------------------------
For the angle +5%2Api%2F6+,
+2x+%2B+pi%2F3+=+5%2Api%2F6+
+2x+=+3%2Api%2F6+
+2x+=+pi%2F2+
+x+=+pi%2F4+
----------------
