Answer:

AA similarity

Explanation:

In Δ ABE,

∠E = 180 - (53 + 42) {Angle sum property of triangle}

= 180 - 95

= 85

In ΔBDC,

∠DBC = ∠ABE {Vertically opposite angles}

∠DBC = 42°

∠D = 180 - (85 + 42) {Angle sum property of triangle}

= 180 - 127

= 53

In ΔABE & ΔDBC

∠A = ∠D

∠E = ∠C

∠ABE = ∠DBC

ΔABE & ΔDBC are similar triangles by AA similarity.
