How many distinct values of x satisfy the equation sin(x) = \[\frac{{\text{x}}}{2}\], where x is in radians? A. 1 B. 2 C. 3 D. 4 or more

The correct answer is $\boxed{\text{B}}$.

The equation $\sin(x) = \frac{x}{2}$ has two distinct solutions in the interval $[0, 2\pi]$. These solutions are $x = \frac{\pi}{6}$ and $x = \frac{5\pi}{6}$.

To see this, we can use the graph of the sine function. The graph of the sine function is shown below.
