The word 'analogous' means 'similar', 'comparable'. It is however, of a higher register than those two, and is mostly used in scientific writing.

Here's an example of the word in use, taken from a scientific website:

"Mind-blowing: Distance between local stars in our galaxy is analogous to 2 grains of sand miles apart"
