    again, given interval is [0,2π)
    and solutions are:
    x = 0
    x = π/3
    x = (5π)/3

    Isn't x = 0 the same as x = 2π in terms of the solution here?

    x = 0 is NOT the same as x=2π in terms of the solution

    2π is not solution because given interval is [0,2π), so x must be less than 2pi

    Yes, you are right. I see that [0,2π) means that 2pi
    cannot be the answer.
