"Vague terror" is terror that has no clear cause; as such, it is all-encompassing.

Usually terror is directly caused by something. For example, someone might have a terror of heights, crowds, or spiders. In these situations, the source of one's terror is clear, and avoiding the trigger (heights, crowds, spiders) is generally easy to do.

If terror were to have a clear source, it could be easily defined (and therefore easily combatted). When terror is vague, however, it cannot be easily defined (and cannot be easily defeated). Therefore, "vague terror" is much worse.

How is the word agreeable related to the word petulant? The petulant customer was not agreeable to any help offered by the store

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

As the person is petulant, he/she does not want the help or opinion of others, so the customer is not agreeable to the help that others offered.

Explanation:

A petulant person is someone that does not take into account the suggestions that others may make to help and considers himself or herself as someone with great qualities. The person acts childishly and has a little temper. The word agreeable relates to petulant because it is something that a person with this characteristic lacks since he or she does not take into consideration what others say
