I found a ring of my Grandfathers. On it was a triangle with a little wavy/squiggly line that looks similar to the tilde key on a keyboard. It is not as wavy, a little more strait but basic shape. The date inside ring is 1920. Also in inside it says "Whom virtue unites death cannot separate."
My Grandfather was a 32nd degree Mason, but this was the 14th degree ring.
To type the symbol that looks like a wave (∼), you can use the tilde key on your keyboard which is usually located to the left of the number 1 key. Press and hold the shift key while pressing the tilde key.
The tilde symbol is used in mathematics to represent infinity.
If it's the ~ you're talking about then it's called a tilde.
Answer: = The symbol for Similarity is the Tilde, ~. It is NOT the equal symbol, =.
The symbol of similarity is typically represented by the tilde (~) or sometimes by the notation "∼". In geometry, it indicates that two figures are similar, meaning they have the same shape but may differ in size. For example, if triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF, it can be denoted as ΔABC ∼ ΔDEF.
It's called an "inverted mordent". If it has a little line through it, it's simply called a "mordent".
The tilde symbol in a web address (eg. http://www.website.com/~tim) usually means that the website belongs to the user with the name after the tilde (in this example, the username is "tim")
The tilde symbol in a web address (eg. http://www.website.com/~tim) usually means that the website belongs to the user with the name after the tilde (in this example, the username is "tim")
To create a triangle symbol for a similarity statement, you can use the Unicode character for the triangle, which is "△" (U+25B3). In most text editors, you can insert it by finding the symbol in the character map or using the keyboard shortcut (e.g., Alt + 9651 on Windows). If you're using LaTeX, you can represent it with the command \triangle. This symbol is often used to denote similar figures in geometry, typically followed by a tilde (∼) to indicate similarity, such as "△ABC ∼ △DEF."
The approximate symbol looks like a tilde placed over an equal sign: ≈. It is used in mathematics and science to indicate that two values are close to each other but not exactly equal.

The symbol that commonly represents "similar" is the tilde (~). In mathematics and geometry, it is often used to indicate that two figures or objects are similar in shape but not necessarily in size, denoting a proportional relationship. For example, if triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF, it can be expressed as ( \triangle ABC \sim \triangle DEF ).
