Problem Statement

Find all real numbers aa for which there exist different real numbers b,c,db, c, d different from aa such that the four tangents drawn to the curve y=sin(x)y = \sin (x) at the points (a,sin(a)),(b,sin(b)),(c,sin(c))(a, \sin (a)), (b, \sin (b)), (c, \sin (c)) and (d,sin(d))(d, \sin (d)) form a rectangle.
