A Flute is woodwind and is played with keys. It is in the key of C Major and creates sound by blowing through a hole. It's range is a lot higher. A Trumpet is a brass instrument and is played with piston valves. It is in the key of Bb Major and creates sound by buzzing into a mouthpiece. Its range is generally lower that the Flute except for the soprano Trumpet

How you can distinguish trumpts from flutes?

Trumpets are entirely different from flutes. For starters, the trumpet is made of brass, while a flute is generally made from a silver alloy most of the time. A trumpet is played to the front, a flute is played to the side, the trumpet has valves and a big horn on the front, a flute is straight out to the side and has keys. The sound is entirely different. Just listen to some trumpet music and then flute music. I'm sure you'll hear the difference.

How are the trumpet and flute similar?

There is very little similarity between a trumpet and a flute other than that they are both musical instruments, they are both constructed of metal (but different metals), and they both use air in motion to produce sound. The trumpet, however, is usually placed with the horns, or brass instruments, while the flute is considered a woodwind. The mouthpiece of the trumpet is blown directly into, the flute is blown across. The trumpet uses valves to alter the pitch, the flute, keys. The trumpet usually starts at F# (below middle C) and has a range of 2 1/2 octaves. The flute begins at middle C with a range of 3 octaves. The trumpet uses an exponentially flared horn at the exit end to amplify sound. The flute uses no amplification system. The air channel of the trumpet is coiled, the flute, straight.
