You can easily notice that $4\leq n\leq7$ and then square first equation obtain $sinx$ in terms of $cosx$ then put $sinx$ in same equation, solve square equation, obtain $cosx$ in dependence of $n$. Notice that $tg\frac{x}{2}=\sqrt{\frac{1-cosx}{1+cosx}}.$ Thus we can put $cosx$ in second equation and obtain an equation for $n.$ Now we can easily check that for $4\leq n\leq7$ only $4$ and $7$ satisfy the equation. Now we can easily get solutions $(x,n)=(0,4);\left(\frac{arcsin\frac{3}{4}}{2},7\right)$
