Similar means that all sides need to have the same ratio. So you know that they're not similar because they all have different ratios. So in order to make them similar, you need to come up with the same ratio for all three sides. So all you have to do is create a ratio like 1:2 that applies to all three sides. Multiply all three sides by 2, and then you'll have 2 similar triangles.
