Answer

$0$, $\frac{\pi}{2}$, $\pi$, $\frac{3\pi}{2}$

Work Step by Step

$\sin 3\theta\cos \theta-\cos 3\theta\sin \theta=0$ $\sin (3\theta-\theta)=0$ $\sin 2\theta=0$ $2\theta=\dots$, $0$, $\pi$, $2\pi$, $3\pi$, $\dots$ The only solutions in $[0, 2\pi)$ are $\theta=0$, $\frac{\pi}{2}$, $\pi$, $\frac{3\pi}{2}$
