I am afraid that it is not possible to solve literally an equation which
makes appear at the same time t, sin(t) and cos(t). A bit like in
differential equations with x and dx.

Literal solutions never exist (except for school cases).

Another trail.
Let sin(x) = T and cos(x) = U, the equation becomes :
(g - c/x)T + hU - a = 0

Wolfram proposes a more "usable" result.
<https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=solve+%28g+-+c%2Fx%29T+%2B+hU+-+a+%3D+0>

x = cT/(-a+gT+hU) with a!=gt+hU & cT!=0


Maybe more adapted to your needs ?
