The solution

You have entered [src]
2*sin(x) = 5*cos(x)
$$2 \sin{\left(x \right)} = 5 \cos{\left(x \right)}$$
Detail solution
Given the equation
$$2 \sin{\left(x \right)} = 5 \cos{\left(x \right)}$$
transform:
$$\frac{2 \sin{\left(x \right)}}{\cos{\left(x \right)}} = 5$$
or
$$2 \tan{\left(x \right)} = 5$$
- this is the simplest trigonometric equation
Divide both parts of the equation by $2$
The equation is transformed to
$$\tan{\left(x \right)} = - \frac{5}{2}$$
This equation is transformed to
$$x = \pi n + \operatorname{atan}{\left(- \frac{5}{2} \right)}$$
Or
$$x = \pi n - \operatorname{atan}{\left(\frac{5}{2} \right)}$$
, where n - is a integer
