I remember browsing about techniques of solving trigonometric equations and seeing somebody use a substitution of the form
[math]t=\sin(x)[/math]
or i think that was it, but i am not sure. Essentially they converted the trigonometric equation into a polynomial equation, solved the polynomial and then used that to help solve the trig equation. does anybody know what im talking about?
