First, find the ratio of the corresponding sides:

49/14 = 3.5

28/8 = 3.5

Both triangles have 2 sides with equal ratios.

the angles inside that sides are opposite angels, which are congruent.

So, 2 sides with equal ratios and the included angles are congruent

Yes. similar by SAS ( side-angle-side)
