I will work one of these for you.
Then you need to follow the example and work the others for yourself.
It is NOT the job of a tutor to do your homework for you, but to show you how to do it for yourself!
In #1: sin x = -1/2
There are 2 angles which satisfy this equation, one in quadrant 3 and one in quadrant 4---you might like to remember the mnemonic "AllSinTanCos" to tell you which functions are positive in quadrants 1, 2, 3, 4.
The angles are 210 degrees and 330 degrees.

I'll only do part 1 and you should get the gist of it. 1) 2sin(x)=-1 =sin(x)=-1/2 sine is negative in 3rd and 4th quadrant therefore: x=(π+π/6) or x=(2π-π/6), therefore x=7π/6,11π/6 \04/29/21
