#pi/6; (5pi)/6; (7pi)/6; (11pi)/6#

Explanation:

#4sin^2 x = 1#
#sin^2 x = 1/4#
#sin x = +- 1/2#
a. #sin x = 1/2#
Trig table and unit circle give 2 solutions:
#x = pi/6# , and #x = (5pi)/6#
b. #sin x = - 1/2#
#x = - pi/6#, or #x = 2pi - pi/6 = (11pi)/6# (co-terminal)
and #x = pi - (-pi/6) = (7pi)/6#
Answers for #(0, 2pi)#
#pi/6; (5pi)/6; (7pi)/6; (11pi)/6#
For general answers, add 2kpi to each solution.
