Answer:

Both 2B and 2A are not similar.

Explanation:

----------------------------------------

Let me be helpful!

Let's start with 2B. It is easier to understand the subject that way.

->for a triangle to be similar, it's angles and sides must be the same.

-2B's triangle shows that line TW got scaled by x2.2 (22/10)

-Line ZW got scaled by 1.18

-2b are not similar.

Now on it 2A!

- line JK got scaled by 0.75

- Line JL got scaled by 0.5

-they are not similar

Let me know if I am incorrect!

-A friendly 8th grader :)
