Step-by-Step Verified Solution

|137−147sin⁡3θcos⁡2θ2|=0

(8 −- 7 cos 2 θ\theta ) −- 3( −- 2 −- 7 sin 3 θ\theta )

      +7 ( −- cos 2 θ\theta −- 4 sin 3 θ\theta ) = 0

14 −- 7 cos 2 θ\theta + 21 sin 3 θ\theta −- 7 cos 2 θ\theta

       −- 28 sin 3 θ\theta = 0

14 −- 7 sin 3 θ\theta −- 14 cos 2 θ\theta = 0

14 −- 7 (3 sin θ\theta −- 4 sin3 θ\theta ) −- 14 (1 −- 2 sin2 θ\theta ) = 0

−- 21 sin θ\theta + 28 sin3 θ\theta + 28 sin2 θ\theta = 0

7 sin θ\theta [ −- 3 + 4 sin2 θ\theta + 4 sin θ\theta ] = 0 sin θ\theta ,

4 sin2 θ\theta + 6 sin θ\theta −- 2 sin θ\theta −- 3 = 0

2 sin θ\theta (2 sin θ\theta + 3) −- 1 (2 sin θ\theta + 3) = 0

sin θ\theta = −32{{ - 3} \over 2} ; sin θ\theta = 12{1 \over 2}

Hence, 2 solutions in (0, π\pi )
