Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:00 Are the triangles similar?
00:03 We want to find the similarity ratio
00:07 This is the ratio of sides
00:10 If all side ratios are equal, then the triangles are similar
00:15 This pair of sides ratio is equal
00:21 This pair of sides ratio is not equal
00:26 The similarity ratio is not equal, therefore the triangles are not similar
00:36 And this is the solution to the question

Answer

No
