Answer:

  no

Step-by-step explanation:

In ∆XYZ, we can write the ratios of the sides from shortest to longest as ...

  y : z : x = 1 : 1.5 : 2 = 2 : 3 : 4

In ∆QSR, we can write the ratios of the side lengths from shortest to longest as ...

  r : s : q = 0.5 : 1 : 1.5 = 1 : 2 : 3

Based on side lengths only, the triangles cannot be similar.

__

<em>Additional note</em>

Even if shortest-to-longest side ratios were the same, the triangle naming is incorrect for them to be similar.
