Solution
In two triangle, we observe that

`(3(1)/2)/(1(1)/6)=(2(1)/3)/(1(3)/4)`
`(7/2)/(7/6)=(7/3)/(7/4)`
`7/2xx6/7=7/3xx4/7`
`cancel7/2xx6/cancel7=cancel7/3xx4/cancel7`
`cancel(6)^3/cancel2=4/3`
`3=4/3`
In two triangles corresponding sides are not proportional to each other.
NO two triangles are not similar.
