Solve the equation sin⁡5θ cos⁡2θ−cos⁡5θ sin⁡2θ=0\sin5\theta\,\cos2\theta-\cos5\theta\,\sin2\theta=0 for 0≤θ<2π0\le\theta<2\pi. a. (i) Express the left-hand side as a single trigonometric function of one angle. b. (ii) Hence find the general solution of the resulting equation. c. (iii) List all solutions that lie in the interval 0≤θ<2π0\le\theta<2\pi, arranging them in ascending order.
