知道 (zhīdào) and 认识 (rènshi) are both verbs that can be translated as "to know" in English, but they have different meanings and uses.
知道 (zhīdào) means "to be aware of or to have knowledge of something." It is used to express that you have information or understanding about a fact or situation.
For example:
* 		我知道你的生日是什么时候。 (Wǒ zhīdào nǐ de shēngrì shì shénme shíhòu. ) - I know when your birthday is.
* 		你知道他的电话号码吗？ (Nǐ zhīdào tā de diànhuà hàomǎ ma?) - Do you know his phone number?
认识 (rènshi) means "to be familiar with or to have met someone." It is used to express that you have a personal connection with someone or have encountered them before.
For example:
* 		我认识你的妈妈。 (Wǒ rènshi nǐ de māma. ) - I know your mom.
* 		你认识他的弟弟吗？ (Nǐ rènshi tā de dìdi ma?) - Do you know his younger brother?
