1.5 = 1 1/2 = 3/2
When there is a negative exponent, you find the reciprocal of the base, so therefore: 3/2 ^ -2 = 2/3 ^ 2
Then you square the numerator, then square the denominator: 2^2/3^2 = 4/9

Answer:

The rectangles are not similar

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to check whether they are similar, we need to take the ratio of their similar sides and ensure they are equal to a constant k.

Hence;

AB/PL = AD/LM = k

32/26 = 18/12 = k

16/13 = 9/6 = k

Since the scale factor is not the same, hence the rectangles are not the same.
