If $xin (0,pi)$ solves the equation then $pi-xin (0,pi)$ also solves the equation since it holds $sin x = sin(pi-x)$. By the uniqueness of solution on $(0,pi)$, we have $x=pi-x$, i.e. $x=fracpi2$. Hence $sin(frac pi2)=1$ solves the quadratic equation, which implies that $$
sin^2(x)-asin x+b=(sin x-1)(sin x-b).
$$
In order that $sin x = b$ has no solution on $(0,pi)$ other than $x=fracpi2$, it must be that $$

      To $x$ to have only one solution in the range $(0,pi)$, then $x$ must be $piover 2$, according to the unit circle for trigonometry.

      Since, $sinfracpi2 = 1$,
      $$sin^2 x - asin x +b = 1-a+b =0$$
      $$implies a-b=1 totexteq.1 $$
      From what you have tried we get,
      $$a^2 =4b to texteq.2 $$
      Thus, to satisfy eqs. 1&2 is,
      From eq.1 , we get,
      $$a=1+b$$
      Subtituting into eq.2,
      $$(1+b)^2=4b$$
      $$1+2b+b^2=4b$$
      $$(b-1)^2=0$$
      $$therefore b=1$$
      and $a=2$

                      To $x$ to have only one solution in the range $(0,pi)$, then $x$ must be $piover 2$, according to the unit circle for trigonometry.

                      Since, $sinfracpi2 = 1$,
                      $$sin^2 x - asin x +b = 1-a+b =0$$
                      $$implies a-b=1 totexteq.1 $$
                      From what you have tried we get,
                      $$a^2 =4b to texteq.2 $$
                      Thus, to satisfy eqs. 1&2 is,
                      From eq.1 , we get,
                      $$a=1+b$$
                      Subtituting into eq.2,
                      $$(1+b)^2=4b$$
                      $$1+2b+b^2=4b$$
                      $$(b-1)^2=0$$
                      $$therefore b=1$$
                      and $a=2$

                        first equation is invalid. It should be $1-a+b=0$
