Fig. 1 shows the curve \(y = 2 \sin x\) for values of \(x\) such that \(- 180 ^ { \circ } \leqslant x \leqslant 180 ^ { \circ }\). State the coordinates of the maximum and minimum points on this part of the curve.

Fig. 2 shows the curve \(y = 2 \sin x\) and the line \(y = k\). The smallest positive solution of the equation \(2 \sin x = k\) is denoted by \(\alpha\). State, in terms of \(\alpha\), and in the range \(- 180 ^ { \circ } \leqslant x \leqslant 180 ^ { \circ }\),
(a) another solution of the equation \(2 \sin x = k\),
(b) one solution of the equation \(2 \sin x = - k\).
Find the \(x\)-coordinates of the points where the curve \(y = 2 \sin x\) intersects the curve \(y = 2 - 3 \cos ^ { 2 } x\), for values of \(x\) such that \(- 180 ^ { \circ } \leqslant x \leqslant 180 ^ { \circ }\).
