Explain when you would use miles versus when you would use inches to reference a length measurement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Religion is a set of beliefs and practices that help us understand our place in the world and the divine

Religions can be broken down into large categories:

Monotheistic or Polytheistic

One God or many Gods

Universalizing or Ethnic

60% of people belong to a universalizing religion - which appeal to people worldwide

25% belong to an ethnic religion - which appeal to just one group in one place

15% have no religious affiliation

This might include:

Secularists - people who want a separation of religion and other areas of society

Agnostics - people who believe that the divine is unknowable to humans

Atheists - people who do not believe in a God(s)

In any faith a person or group can be categorized as fundamental , meaning strict adherence to principles and guidelines (there are instances where this can lead to extremist actions)

Some countries are so involved in religion that the government is run by religious rulers, theocracy

Universalizing Religion

Also known as global religions or proselytic (convert others)

Have precise origins and have diffused from those hearths

Holy sites tend to be associated with the specific founders

These religions tend to have a similar creation story ( cosmogony )

Calendars and holidays tend to be based on the life of the founder

These faiths are usually connected to central leadership

Exceptions can be seen in Protestant Christians and Muslims, who tend to have autonomous religions and self-governing congregations

There are three major universalizing religions

Christianity, Islam and Buddhism

Sikhism and Baha'i are smaller examples

These religions are divided into sections:

Branches - large fundamental difference within a religion

Denominations - division of a branch that unites groups

Sects - Small group that has broken away from a different denomination

you would use miles for a long distance like traveling from one place to another and you would use inches when describing distance between two things or objects that are close to each other like a pen and eraser on your desk

You would use miles when describing a long distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, when describing how far away is a city from another city you would use miles. That is because you are describing a long-distance and  inches would be a very larger number and hard to tell how far it really is.

hope this !

step-by-step explanation:

d = distance between moon and sun, which in this problem is the hypotenuse of a right triangle.  

the distance y is the side opposite to angle x in the right triangle.   use the definition of the sine function from basic trigonometry.

sin(x) = y/d ⇒

d = y/sin(x)
