Answer:

3. ∠BDE ≅ ∠BAC; Corresponding Angles Postulate 5. ΔBDE ~ ΔBAC; Angle-Angle (AA) Similarity Postulate

Step-by-step explanation:

3) Statement ∠BDE ≅ ∠BAC;

Corresponding Angles Postulate

The Corresponding Angles Postulate states that given two parallel lines, in this case DE and AC cut by a transversal one (AB) than these corresponding angles are congruent.

5) ΔBDE ~ ΔBAC; Angle-Angle (AA) Similarity Postulate

If two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent (∠D and ∠A, ∠E and ∠C) than these triangles are similar.
