Answer 1

Answer choices?

Answer 2

They are similar because Segment BR to segment DB is 1:3 and Segment KE to segment YK is 1:3.
They are similar because Segment BR to segment DB is 1:2 and Segment KE to segment YK 1:2.
They are not similar because Segment BR to segment DB is 1:2 and Segment KE to segment YK is 1:3.
They are not similar because Segment BR to segment DB is 1:3 and Segment KE to segment YK is 1:2.

Answer 3

Your answer is "They are not similar because Segment BR to segment DB is 1:2 and Segment KE to segment YK is 1:3." or answer choice C (3rd one).

If you look at the kites, they are clearly different shapes and don't have the same ratios. Making them not similar.

If you don't understand, lemme know and I'll try and rephrase :)
