Answer:

The figures are not similar

Explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and this ratio is called the scale factor

so

Verify

BC/JI=AB/FJ=ED/GH

substitute the given values

5.1/3.6=2.8/2.1=3.7/2.7

1.417=1.333=1.370 ------> is not true

therefore

The figures are not similar
