1. It looks like you have had a bad day.
Aisa lagta hay k jaisay aap ka din bura guzra hay.
2. You say that as if it's a good thing.
Aap aisay kehtay han/kehti han k jaisay ye aik acchi cheez/baat hay.
3. He dances as if he's on fire.
Vo aisay nachta hay jaisay usay aag lagi hui ho.
4. She's angry like a tiger.
Vo aik cheetay ki tarah ghussay men hay.
You'll use a combo of aisa/jaisa as you can see in 1-3. Aisa clause contains the actual piece of info, and jaisa clause shows the comparison that you have made.
For simple similes like in sentence 4, you can use "ki tarah."
