Usage of "to conform"

Collins Dictionary defines "to conform" as follows:

(1) if someone or something conforms to a pattern or type, they are very similar to it.

(2) If you conform, you behave in the way that you are expected or supposed to behave.

I am going to use it in a sentence.

(ex) Mr. Brown is a strict math teacher and a tough marker. His students have to solve
problems in ways that conform to his.

Am I using it correctly? Thanks.
