\(\sin^2x+4\cos x=1\)
\(\Leftrightarrow1-\cos^2x+4\cos x=1\)
\(\Leftrightarrow1-\cos^2x+4\cos x-1=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow-\cos^2x+4\cos x=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\cos x\left(4-\cos x\right)=0\)

\(\Rightarrow3\le4-\cos x\le5\)
\(\Rightarrow4-\cos x>0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\cos x=0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow x=\dfrac{\pi}{2}+k\pi\left(k\in Z\right)\)
