Solution:
Given:
$\Rightarrow\cos(5\text{x}-2\text{x})\tan5\text{x}=\sin(5\text{x}+2\text{x})$
$\Rightarrow\tan5\text{x}=\frac{\sin(5\text{x}+2\text{x})}{\cos(5\text{x}-2\text{x})}$
$\Rightarrow\tan5\text{x}=\frac{\sin5\text{x}\cos2\text{x}+\cos5\text{x}\sin2\text{x}}{\cos5\text{x}\cos2\text{x}+\sin5\text{x}\cos2\text{x}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\sin5\text{x}}{\cos5\text{x}}=\frac{\sin5\text{x}\cos2\text{x}+\cos5\text{x}\sin2\text{x}}{\cos5\text{x}\cos2\text{x}+\sin5\text{x}\cos2\text{x}}$
$\Rightarrow\sin5\text{x}\cos5\text{x}+\sin^25\text{x}\sin2\text{x}\\=\sin5\text{x}\cos5\text{x}\cos2\text{x}+\cos^25\text{x}\sin2\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\sin^25\text{x}\sin2\text{x}=\cos^25\text{x}\sin2\text{x}$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\sin^25\text{x}\cos^25\text{x}\Big)\sin2\text{x}=0$
$\Rightarrow\Big(\sin5\text{x}-\cos5\text{x}\Big)\Big(\sin5\text{x}+\cos5\text{x}\Big)\sin2\text{x}=0$
$\Rightarrow\sin5\text{x}-\cos5\text{x}=0,\ \sin5\text{x}+\cos5\text{x}=0$ or $\sin2\text{x}=0$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\sin5\text{x}}{\cos5\text{x}}=1,\ \frac{\sin5\text{x}}{\cos5\text{x}}=-1$ or $\sin2\text{x}=0$
Now,
$\Rightarrow\tan5\text{x}=\tan\frac{\pi}{4}$
$\Rightarrow5\text{x}=\text{n}\pi+\frac{\pi}{4},\ \text{n}\in\text{Z}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{\text{n}\pi}{5}+\frac{\pi}{20},\text{n}\in\text{Z}$
F or n = 0, 1 and 2, the values of x are $\frac{\pi}{20},\ \frac{\pi}{4}$ and $\frac{9\pi}{20},$ respectively.
Or,
$\tan5\text{x}=1$
$\Rightarrow\tan5\text{x}=\tan\frac{3\pi}{4}$
$\Rightarrow5\pi=\text{n}\pi+\frac{3\pi}{4},\ \text{n}\in\text{Z}$
$\Rightarrowx\text{x}=\frac{\text{n}\pi}{5}+\frac{3\pi}{20},\ \text{n}\in\text{Z}$
For n = 0 and 1, the values of x are $\frac{3\pi}{20}$ and $\frac{7\pi}{20},$ respectively.
And,
$\sin2\text{x}=\sin0$
$\Rightarrow\sin2\text{x}=\sin0$
$\Rightarrow2\text{x}=\text{n}\pi,\ \text{n}\in\text{Z}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\frac{\text{n}\pi}{2},\ \text{n}\in\text{Z}$
For n = 0, the value of x is 0.
Also, for the odd multiple of $\frac{\pi}{2,}$ tanx is not defined.
Hence, there are six solutions.
