It is known that points \( D \) and \( E \), as well as the segment \( \overline{DBE} \), form right angles. With this given information and the structure of the triangles, one can use the properties of right triangles, the Angle-Angle (AA) similarity postulate, or other geometric theorems to establish similarity between the two triangles.
