how do I do this problem ?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The given equation
sin(x) = -0.86
has two solutions in the given interval 0 <= x < 2pi.
One solution is in the third quadrant, QIII,
x = arcsin(0.86) +  radians = 1.03527 + 3.14159 radians = 4.1769 radians.
Second solution is in the fourth quadrant, QIV,
x =  - arcsin(0.86) radians = 2*3.14159 - 1.03527 radians = 5.2479 radians.
ANSWER. The two solutions in the given interval are A = 4.1769 radians and B = 5.2479 radians (rounded as requested).
Solved.
