Step-by-step explanation:
Given the vertex of the parabola at point (2, -3):
The quadratic function in vertex form is:
f(x) = (x - 2)^2 - 3
where the vertex (h, k) is the minimum point = (2, -3).
The ratio of the shortest sides is 12/5. Multiplying the other two sides of the smaller triangle by that ratio gives 15 and 18, so the ratios of all sides are the same. The triangles are similar.

The largest/smallest scale factor is 12/5 = 2.4.
