I suppose option A (triangleADE ~triangleABC) is correct.

this is because, it is already given that, color(magenta)(angleD = angleB
color(magenta)(angle A is shared by both the triangles,

now,
angle E = 180^@ - angleA - angle D
angle C = 180^@ - angleA - angle B
=>color(magenta)(angle E =angle C

Hence, since the corresponding angles are equal, the triangles are similar by, AAA rule
