No because the measurement of their angles are different. If the angle measurements were the same, they would have been similar.
You see in the smaller triangle, the given angle is 55 degrees while in the bigger triangle the given angle is 30 degrees.
The angles are in the same place in both triangles. So we will get to the conclusion that they are DIFFERENT.
