Why does hamlet not kill claudius while he is praying?

English
1 answer:
Ludmilka [50]3 years ago
4 0
Hamlet refuses to kill Claudius while praying, because he believes that Claudius's spirit will go to heaven since he is in the process of asking God for forgiveness. Hamlet knows that his father never had a chance to repent for his numerous sins before Claudius murdered him and does not think that sending Claudius's soul to heaven would be adequate revenge. Essentially, killing Claudius is not enough for Hamlet, who wishes to send Claudius's soul to hell for eternity. Hamlet hopes to kill his uncle while he is excessively drinking alcohol, gambling, or "in th' incestuous pleasure of his bed" in order to ensure that his soul will suffer in hell.

Edit the following paragraph by correcting the inconsistent verb tense. Copy the corrected paragraph onto your own sheet of pape
Alex
In the Middle Ages, most people lived in villages and worked as agricultural laborers, or peasants. Every village had a “lord,” and peasants worked on his land. Much of what they produced went to the lord and his family. What little food was leftover went to support the peasants’ families. In return for their labor, the lord offered them protection. A peasant’s day usually began before sunrise and involved long hours of backbreaking work, which included plowing the land, planting seeds, and cutting the crops for harvesting. The working life of a peasant in the Middle Ages was usually demanded and exhausting.

Find the third side of each of the following right-angled triangles whose hypotenuses and
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

<em>The other side is 6cm.</em>

Explanation:

<em>Hypotenuse = 10cm</em>

<em>Base</em><em> = 8cm</em>

<em>Altitude</em><em> = x cm ( not given) </em>

<em>Using Pythagoras theorem,( hypotenuse)^2 = ( base) ^2 + (altitude)^2</em>

<em>(altitude)^2 = (</em><em>hy</em><em>potenuse</em><em>)</em><em>^</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>base</em><em>)</em><em>^</em><em>2</em>

<em>(</em><em>x)</em><em>^</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em>)</em><em>^</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>8</em><em>)</em><em>^</em><em>2</em>

<em>(</em><em>x</em><em>)^2 = 100 - 64</em><em> </em>

<em>(x) ^2 = 36</em>

<em>x</em><em> = √36</em>

<em>therefore</em><em>, x =6</em><em>c</em><em>m ( altitude)</em>
