Even native speakers have to decide such matters for themselves. You look up each word in several respected dictionaries (not all dictionaries are the same), and reach an understanding of the nuances of each word. You read enough material to gain experience of the words, and you come to realize each one's value and weight and import, and you learn which words go together in an idiomatic way.

0Most native speakers do not use PERILOUS. Most of the time we use the word DANGEROUS. The word HAZARDOUS tends to be used more for health related dangers.
"Smoking is hazardous to your health."
"Riding a motorcycle without a helmet is dangerous."
