Solution

3sin^2(x) = -5sinx + 8

3sin^2x + 5sinx - 8 = 0

This is a quadratic in sinx
Let sinx = y

So, 3y^2 + 5y - 8 = 0

a = 3
b = 5
c = -8

Sum = b , prodict = ac becomes
sum = 5
product = -24

So, the two numbers that work are 8 and-3

So, 3y^2 - 3y + 8y - 8 = 0
3y(y - 1) + 8(y - 1) = 0
(3y + 8)(y - 1) = 0
y = -8/3 and 1

So, sinx = -8/3 ----> no solution

sinx = 1 --> has solutin
x = pi/2

So, ans:

x = pi/2 -----> ANS
