Certainly not by the act itself primarily but by the level of authority of the person that the sin was committed to. What is God's glory? Well, he created all the billions of galaxies with all the billions of stars in each one of them just by the power of His words. He created Adam and Eve who one day ate the forbidden fruit. Was God just angry because they got a little bite to eat? Not at all. It was like slapping God in his holy face in front of all the millions of angels who worship him continuously. He was humiliated in front of all of them. The seriousness of their sin cannot be measured by the act itself but by what it did to God and the creation. No wonder then that the wages of sin is death.

Explain what the Law of sines becomes when one of the angles is a right angle?

The Law of sines: a/sin A = b/sin B = c/sin CIf the angle C in the triangle ABC is 90 degrees, then the triangle ABC is a right triangle, where c is the measure of the hypotenuse, a is the measure of the leg opposite the angle A, and b is the measure of the leg opposite the angle B.Let us observe what happens when sin C = sin 90 degrees = 1.c/sin C = a/sin A cross multiply;c sin A = a sin C divide by c both sides;(c sin A)/c = (a sin C)/c simplify c on the left hand side;sin A = (a sin C)/c = [(a)(1)]/c = a/csin A = (measure of leg opposite the angle A)/(measure of hypotenuse)From the Law of Cosine we know that cos A= (b^2 + c^2 - a^2)/(2bc). If we substitute a^2 + b^2 for c^2, we have:cos A = (b^2 + (a^2+ b^2) - a^2 )/(2ab)cos A = 2b^2 /2ab simplify;cos A = b/c = (measure of leg adjacent the angle A)/(measure of hypotenuse) Therefore tan A = sin A/cos A =(a/c)/(b/c) = (a/c)(c/b) = a/b = (measure of leg opposite the angle A)/(measure of leg adjacent to angle A). And cot A = cos A/sin A = (b/c)/(a/c) = (b/c)(c/a) = b/a = (measure of leg adjacent to angle A)/(measure of leg opposite the angle A).


What are inverse sine inverse cosine and inverse tangent used for?

to find the measure of an angle. EX: if sin A = 0.1234, then inv sin (0.1234) will give you the measure of angle A


Can you use the law of sines if 3 sides are given?

Yes, but you would need to know a degree measure too. [Sin(A)/a] = [Sin(B)/b] = [Sin(C)/c] [a/Sin(A)] = [b/Sin(B)] = [c/Sin(C)]


At what angle measure are the sin and the cosine equal?

45 degree


Is using God's name in vain an example of mortal sin?

Using God's name in vain is surely a sin, but all sins are the same. There is really no "mortal sin". The Bible tells us that all sin is equal. Sin is sin. Yes, using God's Name in vain is usually a mortal sin as it conscious defamation or disrespect of God's Person. Sometimes it may be a venial sin, especially if one has a habit, or if one makes an exclamation out of extreme fear or distress and thus without full consent of the will or understanding of the intellect. Intent defines the seriousness of the offense.

What is the essential information that every Catholic needs to know about hell"?

Every Catholic should know that hell is a place of eternal separation from God, reserved for those who die in a state of mortal sin without repentance. It is a place of suffering and punishment, where souls are deprived of the presence of God for eternity. It is important for Catholics to understand the seriousness of sin and the need for repentance to avoid the possibility of going to hell.


Is the sin of betrayal the most serious sin a person can commit?

Each religion has its own hierarchy of the seriousness of various sins, but betrayal is high on the list for all of them. "MOST" serious? Most religions rate blasphemy as a more serious sin than betrayal, although you could consider blasphemy as a betrayal of God, not just of man.


Why is it important to follow the fifth commandment?

we keep the fifth commandment by preserving our own life and health by respecting our neighbor's right to life and health of body and soul. the seriousness of such sins is determined by the seriousness of the harm done to our neighbor. deliberately to wish a serious evil to another, to cooperate with him in a serious sin, to give serious scandal or to talk or act against our neighbor in such a way as to injure him seriously is a mortal sin against the fifth commandment.


What is negative consequence of using a euphemism?

It can minimize the seriousness of something


Mathew 18v9 And if your eye causes you to sin tear it out and throw it away will one eye do sin and explain the just- possibility- etc?

The verse is using exaggerated language to emphasize the seriousness of avoiding sin, not to be taken literally. Having only one eye wouldn't prevent us from sinning, since sin originates in the heart, not the physical body. It highlights the importance of dealing decisively with things that lead us to sin, even if it means making extreme sacrifices.
