Identical To symbol
Type :identical_to: · Math
What ≡ is for
Identity rather than equality: true for every value, not just for some. Also means congruence in modular arithmetic, as in 7 ≡ 1 (mod 3). Three bars where equality has two, which is the whole mnemonic.
How to type ≡

is the same on every platform.
macOS
No direct shortcut. Use Edit → Emoji & Symbols, or switch to the Unicode Hex Input

No Alt code. In Word, type 2261 then press Alt +
X. Elsewhere use the emoji panel with Win + Period, or Character Map.
