3sin2x=4cosx, x is between 0 and 360? I don't know how to do the symbol for pie, sorry!
 
a)
2sinx = 6cosx
sinx = 3cosx
tanx = 3
x = arctan(3)

b)
3sin2x = 4cosx
3(2sinxcosx) = 4cosx
sinx * cosx = 2/3 cosX
sinx = 2/3
x = acrsin(2/3)

I guess you will have to use a calculator because 3 and 2/3 are not on the unit circle.
