### Geometry Problem: Finding AE

#### Problem Statement:

Given the following right triangle diagram, solve for the length \( AE \). 

Diagram Explanation:
- Triangle \( ABC \) is given with:
  - \( AB = 6 \)
  - \( BC = 5 \)
  - \( BD = 3 \)
  - \( \angle ADB = \angle BDE = 90^\circ \)
- Points \( D \) and \( E \) are depicted such that \( AD \perp BD \) and \( DE \perp BE \).

Calculate the length \( AE \).

#### Diagram:
```

   / | \
 6/  |  \

/____|    \
B----D-----E
3     2     1
 |_____|
     5
```
(Explained as a visual guide)

#### Options:
A) 8  
B) \(\sqrt{75}\)   
C) \(\sqrt{66}\)   
D) 9  
E) None of these  

#### Explanation:
1. **Identify** right-angled triangles and use Pythagorean theorem where applicable.
2. **Calculate** the necessary lengths within triangle using relationships established.
3. **Solve** for \( AE \).

### Solution:
- A full, step-by-step solution will involve breaking down triangles \( ABD \), \( BDE \), and geometric principles.

Choose the correct option among those listed.
