1. **State the problem:** Solve the equation $$\sin 5\theta + \sin 3\theta = 0$$ for $$0 \leq \theta \leq \pi$$.
2. **Use the sum-to-product formula:** Recall that $$\sin A + \sin B = 2 \sin \left( \frac{A+B}{2} \right) \cos \left( \frac{A-B}{2} \right)$$.
3. **Apply the formula:**
$$\sin 5\theta + \sin 3\theta = 2 \sin \left( \frac{5\theta + 3\theta}{2} \right) \cos \left( \frac{5\theta - 3\theta}{2} \right) = 2 \sin 4\theta \cos \theta$$
4. **Set the product equal to zero:**
$$2 \sin 4\theta \cos \theta = 0$$
5. **Solve each factor separately:**
- $$\sin 4\theta = 0$$
- $$\cos \theta = 0$$
6. **Solve $$\sin 4\theta = 0$$:**
$$\sin 4\theta = 0 \implies 4\theta = n\pi, \quad n \in \mathbb{Z}$$
Since $$0 \leq \theta \leq \pi$$, then $$0 \leq 4\theta \leq 4\pi$$.
So $$n\pi \in [0,4\pi] \implies n = 0,1,2,3,4$$.
Thus,
$$\theta = \frac{n\pi}{4}, \quad n=0,1,2,3,4$$
7. **Solve $$\cos \theta = 0$$:**
$$\cos \theta = 0 \implies \theta = \frac{\pi}{2} + k\pi, \quad k \in \mathbb{Z}$$
Within $$0 \leq \theta \leq \pi$$, only $$\theta = \frac{\pi}{2}$$ fits.
8. **Combine all solutions:**
$$\theta = 0, \frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{4}, \pi$$
Note that $$\theta=0$$ and $$\theta=\pi$$ are included since the inequality is $$\leq$$.
**Final answer:**
$$\boxed{\theta = 0, \frac{\pi}{4}, \frac{\pi}{2}, \frac{3\pi}{4}, \pi}$$
