Let theta = x
sin^4 x – 2sin^2 x = 0
sin^2 x(sin^2 x – 2) = 0
We have 2 equations
sin^2 x = 0.......(1) sin^2 x = 2........(2)
From (1), we have From (2), we have
sin x = 0 sin x = 
sqroot(2) sin x = -sqroot(2)
x = nπ Not possible (because -1 <= sin x <= 1)
So final solution is x = 0,π, 2π
Thanks & Regards
