(i) Given that \(\sec \theta + 2 \csc \theta = 3 \csc 2\theta\), show that \(2 \sin \theta + 4 \cos \theta = 3\).

(ii) Express \(2 \sin \theta + 4 \cos \theta\) in the form \(R \sin(\theta + \alpha)\) where \(R > 0\) and \(0^\circ < \alpha < 90^\circ\), giving the value of \(\alpha\) correct to 2 decimal places.

(iii) Hence solve the equation \(\sec \theta + 2 \csc \theta = 3 \csc 2\theta\) for \(0^\circ < \theta < 360^\circ\).
