Answer

$x=\{\frac{\pi}{8},\frac{3\pi}{8},\frac{9\pi}{8},\frac{11\pi}{8}\}$

Work Step by Step

$sin(2x)=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ $2x=sin^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2})$ We know $sin(x)$ is positive in quardent $I$ and quardent $II$ The period of the sine function is $2\pi$ $2x=\frac{\pi}{4}\;\;\;\;or\;\;\;\;\;\;2x=2\pi+\frac{\pi}{4}\;\;\;\;or\;\;\;\;\;\;2x=\pi -\frac{\pi}{4}\;\;\;\;\;\;or\;\;\;\;2x=2\pi + \frac{3\pi}{4} $ $x=\frac{\pi}{8}\;\;\;\;or\;\;\;\;\;\;x=\frac{9\pi}{8}\;\;\;\;or\;\;\;\;\;\;x=\frac{3\pi}{8}\;\;\;\;\;\;\;\;or\;\;\;\;\;x=\frac{11\pi}{8}$ $x=\{\frac{\pi}{8},\frac{3\pi}{8},\frac{9\pi}{8},\frac{11\pi}{8}\}$
