Dear  kiran ,

1) 2(1- sin2A) -sinA -1 =0 

    2(1-sin2A))  = sinA + 1

   cancelling we get , sinA +1  = 0 ---not possible or 1 - sin2A =1/2 i.e sin2A = 1/2

so , sinA = ±(1/2)0.5   , we get A= 45, 135 , 225 , 315

2) 4 cot2A = 3 cosec2A  

   4 cos2A =  3  ;  cosA =±  30.5/ 2   , we get A =  30  , 150 , 210 ,330

3)put sin2A = t ,  t2 -2t -1 = 0  solving we get , t  = 1± √2    ; both are not possible . so no solution

4) 3( 1+ sin2A)  = 5 cos2

    3( 1+ sin2A)  = 5 (1- sin2A)

    8sin2A  = 2 

       sin2A  = 1/4

        sinA = ± 1/2

we get A  =  30  , 150 , 210 ,330
