How to solve for f(x)=g(x)?

Hi, I am a calculus student using mathematica for project assignments. I have run into an issue where I need to solve |Sin x|=|x^2-4|. There are 4 solutions to this problem, but I cannot for the life of me program Mathematica to solve it. Any advice?

Thanks, I did try that, but the formatting of the command seems to be the biggest issue for me.

Hint: f(x) == g(x) -> f(x) - g(x) == 0, then use Solve.
