Answer:

The triangles are not similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at ratios of corresponding sides. If the triangles are similar, all the ratios will be equal.

Compare a side from [tex]\triangle{RTS}[/tex] with a side from [tex]\triangle{MQP}[/tex].

16/20 = 4/5

12/15 = 4/5  (looks promising, so far!)

20/26 = 10/13   Not at all the same as 4/5, so the triangles are not similar.
