\(sin2\theta=cos\theta \)

Apply the double angle identity to sin2θ.

\(2sin\theta cos\theta=cos\theta \)

\(2sin\theta cos\theta-cos\theta=0\)

\((cos\theta)(2sin\theta-1)=0\)

\(cos\theta=0\)

\(\theta=90°,270°\)

\(2sin\theta-1=0\)

\(\frac{1}{2}=sin\theta\)

\(\theta=30°,150°\)

Therefore, θ can be equal to 30°, 90°, 150°, 270°
