Question

When drawing the resonance structures for a toluene carbocation (like the one attached below), should I include the structure created after a bond shift from the fourth structure, even though it mimicks the first structure? What about in the second picture- should the crossed out structure be included despite its similarity to the first one?

Overall, I'm having trouble determining whether two compounds are the same and don't need to be drawn twice or just similar and need to drawn twice.

2. What are the resonance structures for the following carbocation? What are the partial charges for
each carbon? Draw out the resonance hybrid.
