sqrt%282%29cos%28x%29+=+sin%282x%29
sqrt%282%29cos%28x%29+=+2sin%28x%29cos%28x%29
sqrt%282%29cos%28x%29+-+2sin%28x%29cos%28x%29+=+0
cos%28x%29%2A%28sqrt%282%29+-+2sin%28x%29%29+=+0
cos(x) = 0
x = 90, 270 degs
===================
sqrt%282%29+-+2sin%28x%29+=+0
sin%28x%29+=+sqrt%282%29%2F2
x = 45, 135 degs
