4sin2x+4cos2x=5(45sin2x+35cos2x)
Note we want 45sin2x+35cos2x=sin(2x+α) for some α
By compound angle formula, we know
sin(2x+α)sin2xcos(α)+cos2xsin(α)
So in order to fulfill the requirement, we only need to set
cos(α)=45, sin(α)=35
Such α exists. Hence 5(45sin2x+35cos2x)=5sin(2x+α) with cos(α)=45, sin(α)=35, that is tan(α)=34
