I assume the up arrows are supposed to indicate exponents, so that the equation is

sin²(<em>θ</em>) = 2 sin²(<em>θ</em>/2)

Recall the half-angle identity for sine,

sin²(<em>θ</em>/2) = (1 - cos(<em>θ</em>))/2,

as well as the Pythagorean identity,

sin²(<em>θ</em>) + cos²(<em>θ</em>) = 1

Rewrite the equation in terms of cosine and solve:

1 - cos²(<em>θ</em>) = 1 - cos(<em>θ</em>)

cos²(<em>θ</em>) - cos(<em>θ</em>) = 0

cos(<em>θ</em>) (cos(<em>θ</em>) - 1) = 0

cos(<em>θ</em>) = 0   <u>or</u>   cos(<em>θ</em>) - 1 = 0

cos(<em>θ</em>) = 0   <u>or</u>   cos(<em>θ</em>) = 1

[<em>θ</em> = arccos(0) + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>θ</em> = arccos(0) - <em>π</em> + 2<em>nπ</em>]   <u>or</u>

… … … [<em>θ</em> = arccos(1) + 2<em>nπ</em>]

(where <em>n</em> is any integer)

[<em>θ</em> = <em>π</em>/2 + 2<em>nπ</em>   <u>or</u>   <em>θ</em> = -<em>π</em>/2 + 2<em>nπ</em>]   <u>or</u>   [<em>θ</em> = 2<em>nπ</em>]

In the interval 0 ≤ <em>θ</em> < 2<em>π</em>, we get the solutions <em>θ</em> = 0, <em>π</em>/2, and 3<em>π</em>/2.

(That is, for <em>n</em> = 0 in the first and third solution families, and <em>n</em> = 1 in the second family.)
