Answer:

They are not similar

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine whether the prism are similar we need to calculate their volumes

Volume of a prism = Base Area * Height

Volume of the first prism = 18ft *8 * 8ft

Volume of the first prism = 1152ft^2

Volume of the second prism = 30t * 15 * 15ft

Volume of the second prism = 6,750ft^2

Since the volumes are different, the prism are not similar.
