If there is one prayer that you should pray/sing every day and every hour, it is the LORD's prayer (Our FATHER in Heaven prayer)
It is the most powerful prayer. A pure heart, a clean mind, and a clear conscience is necessary for it.

For in GOD we live, and move, and have our being. - Acts 17:28

Special Angles Kids: Sum and Difference Formulas

Samuel Dominic Chukwuemeka (SamDom For Peace) Special Angles Kids are those angles whose trigonometric functions can be found based on the trigonometric formulas of special angles.
