I am trying to solve this trigonometric equation:

$\sin 84^\circ \sin 18^\circ \sin x = \sin 12^\circ \sin 48^\circ \sin (18^\circ -x)$

I used calculator to get an answer $x=6$ but I don't know how to solve it. Please help. Thanks! Best Regards, Michael

The two equations are similar but the values are not the same. – luimichael Jun 16 '17 at 09:10
You should be able to use the same method, just substituting in different numbers – lioness99a Jun 16 '17 at 09:12
There is a cancellation of factors in the that equation but there is no cancellation this time and the simplification is not so simple. – luimichael Jun 16 '17 at 09:16
