sqrt(3)-2sin(6x)=0 with x epsilon [0,2pi]
rarrcolor(white)("XXXX")x = pi/9 or pi/18

Explanation:

Temporarily replace 6x with theta

sqrt(3) - 2sin(theta) = 0

rarrcolor(white)("XXXX")sin( theta) = sqrt(3)/2

within the range [0,2pi] this is one of the standard angles with
color(white)("XXXX")theta = pi/3 or theta= (2pi)/3

Since theta = 6x
color(white)("XXXX")6x = pi/3 or 6x = (2pi)/3

rarrcolor(white)("XXXX")x = pi/18 or x = pi/9
