Given:
tan
x
=
sin
x
Solutions of equation
tan
x
=
sin
x
are same as the number of points of intersections of graphs of
y
=
tan
x
and
y
=
sin
x
The graph is given below
it is obvious from the graph that
tan
x
=
sin
x
where
tan
x
=
sin
x
=
0
And we know
tan
x
=
0
⇔
x
=
n
π
,
∀
n
∈
Z
In the interval
[
−
3
π
,
3
π
]
, required solutions are
x
=
−
