Answer:

They are similar because if you look at the length of 2 of the sides that you know

Triangle ABC has side length 1 and 2 or 1:2

CFE has sides length 2 and 4 or 2:4 and 2:4 can also be written as
(2)/(4) which is a fraction, and fractions can be simplified to 1:2.

So they are similar but just one is bigger then the other.
