Hi Solveit :)
what does that ~ mean
I wasn't sure so I looked it up :)
It is used in geometry and it means "is similar to"
Two shapes are similar if they have the same angles and the sides are in the same proportions.
That is, one is an enlargement of the other one. (It doesn't matter if the second one is turned or reflected)

Hi all,
It has been a week since my last wrap. That is largely because I was away on holidays. This also means that there are a number of threads and answers that I have not seen :( Still I have collected many answerer names: Credits go to Alan, CPhill, anonymous4338, Complex, Heureka, Olivia 3.141592654, Cookiesandcream, Alleycat2, gibsonj338 and Dragonlance. Thank you
Thanks for a appreciating my colour scheme too Hayley LOL
