Why the disc size of moon and sun almost equal as seen from earth? [Spirituality & Religion]

Is it a coincidence or something else?

The diameter of the Sun is 400 times larger than the Moon. The sun is (near enough) 4 times further away from the earth, which would make the sun looks the same size or just a bit bigger than the moon taking the distance into consideration. It's down to maths, I guess.

@Justbychance that I know....but is it a coincidence that sun being bigger is placed away?

@gaurangi if earth and sun were at a distance as moon and earth them earth would have not been able to let ppl live here.
