Answer: No, they are not similar.

Technically, we don't have enough info so it could go either way.

==========================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that the sides are proportional to each other, but we don't know anything about the angles. We need to know if the angles are the same. If they are, then the hexagons are similar. If the angles are different, then the figures are not similar.

Right now we simply don't have enough info. So they could be similar, or they may not be. The best answer (in my opinion) is "not enough info". However, your teacher likely wants you to pick one side or the other. We can't pick "similar" so it's best to go with "not similar" until more info comes along the way.
