please help me establish(etablir):
$\forall n\in \mathbb{N}-\left\{ 0,\left. 1 \right\} \right.$ , $x\in \mathbb{R}-\left\{ \pi \mathbb{Z} \right\}$ , $\left| \sin \left( nx \right) \right|
thx in advance...

Hint: Have you heard of induction?
What is the range of $\sin(z)$ What is the range of $\sin(n z)$?
All the restrictions on $n$ and $x$ just remove annoying counterexamples.
I spent some time on solving this. Here is my solution based on your suggestions. I would like to verify it's correctness.
We'll prove by induction that $\forall n \in \Bbb N : |sin(nx)| \le n|sin(x)|$.
For n=1 this is obviously true. We'll assume that this statemnet is true for n and prove that it's also true for n+1. So
(using the aforementioned trig. identity)
$|\sin((n+1)x)|=|\sin(nx+x)|=|\sin(nx) \cos(x)+\cos(nx)\sin(x)|$
(using the triangle inequality and the bounds of sin and cos)
$\le |\sin(nx)\cos(x)|+|\cos(nx)\sin(x)| \le 1 \cdot |\sin(nx)|+1 \cdot |\sin(x)|$
$\le n|\sin(x)|+|sin(x)| = (n+1)|\sin(x)|$
