Answer:

x∈[2nπ−5π/6, 2nπ−π/6]∪{(4n+1)π/2}, n ϵ I

Explanation:

1−2sin2 x≤−sin x ⇒ (2sin x+1)(sin x−1)≥0

sin x≤−1/2 or sin x≥1

−5π/6+2nπ≤x≤−π/6+2nπ or , n ϵ I x=(4n+1)π/2, n ϵ I⇒ -5π6+2nπ≤x≤-π6+2nπ or , n ϵ I x=4n+1π2, n ϵ I (as sin x = 1 is valid only)

In general⇒ In general x∈[2nπ−5π/6, 2nπ−π/6]∪{(4n+1)π/2}, n ϵ I
