Just to let you know, on the post about scaling and algebra, the two squiggles do not mean congruent. They mean "approximately equal to" which is close, but not exactly what you're looking for. You would use that symbol if saying pi is approximately 3.14. For the congruent symbol, it's an equal sign with the squiggle above it. Although, congruent means that the triangles are EXACTLY the same. You're talking about the triangles being similar, or scaled. Similar is normally just one squiggle (~).
haha thanks for the clarification! i guess i get a couple points for knowing a squiggle was involved at least :^)
