3. (a) Use the identities for \(\sin ( A + B )\) and \(\sin ( A - B )\) to prove that $$\sin P + \sin Q \equiv 2 \sin \frac { P + Q } { 2 } \cos \frac { P - Q } { 2 } \text {. }$$ (b) Find, in terms of \(\pi\), the solutions of the equation $$\sin 5 x + \sin x = 0$$ for \(x\) in the interval \(0 \leq x < \pi\).
