Detailed Solution

Parallel Symbol is used to represent the relationship between two lines. For example if we are given two lines m and n, along with the condition m ∥ n then this condition represents that both these lines are parallel to each other and will never intersect.
Congruence Symbol: The Congruence symbol is ≅. For, example let Δ ABC and Δ DEF are congruent then to write this mathematically we will use the congruence symbol i.e. ΔABC≅ΔDEF.
Similarity Symbol: If Δ ABC and Δ DEF are similar then this can be written mathematically as, ABC≃DEF.
Perpendicular Symbol: Perpendicular lines are the lines which make a right angle when they intersect on some plane. The product of the slopes of these lines is equal to −1. It is represented by symbol ⊥.
