Solve for x    2sin^2 x+3sin(x)+1=0 for 0 ≤ x

$${Solve}\:{for}\:{x} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}{sin}^{\mathrm{2}} {x}+\mathrm{3}{sin}\left({x}\right)+\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{0}\:{for}\:\mathrm{0}\:\leqslant\:{x} \\ $$

2sin^2 x+3sin(x)+1=0  2sin^2 x+2sin(x)+sin(x)+1=0  2sin(x)(sin(x)+1)+(sin(x)+1)=0  (sin(x)+1)(2sin(x)+1)=0  sin(x)=−1 ∨ sin(x)=−(1/2)  x=−90^(×) ,270^(✓)  ∨ x=−30^(×) ,330^(✓)

$$\mathrm{2}{sin}^{\mathrm{2}} {x}+\mathrm{3}{sin}\left({x}\right)+\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}{sin}^{\mathrm{2}} {x}+\mathrm{2}{sin}\left({x}\right)+{sin}\left({x}\right)+\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}{sin}\left({x}\right)\left({sin}\left({x}\right)+\mathrm{1}\right)+\left({sin}\left({x}\right)+\mathrm{1}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\left({sin}\left({x}\right)+\mathrm{1}\right)\left(\mathrm{2}{sin}\left({x}\right)+\mathrm{1}\right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${sin}\left({x}\right)=−\mathrm{1}\:\vee\:{sin}\left({x}\right)=−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${x}=\overset{×} {−\mathrm{90}},\overset{\checkmark} {\mathrm{270}}\:\vee\:{x}=\overset{×} {−\mathrm{30}},\overset{\checkmark} {\mathrm{330}} \\ $$

x=210° is also a solution.

$${x}=\mathrm{210}°\:{is}\:{also}\:{a}\:{solution}. \\ $$

sin(x)=sin(180−x)  sin(−30)=sin(180−(−30))=sin(210)=−(1/2)

$${sin}\left({x}\right)={sin}\left(\mathrm{180}−{x}\right) \\ $$$${sin}\left(−\mathrm{30}\right)={sin}\left(\mathrm{180}−\left(−\mathrm{30}\right)\right)={sin}\left(\mathrm{210}\right)=−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$
