Answer:
Since D and E are the mid-points of the sides BC and AB respectively of △ABC.
Therefore,
DE∣∣BA
⇒ DE∣∣FA........(i)
Since D and F are mid-points of the sides BC and AB respectively of △ABC.
∴ DF∣∣CA⇒DF∣∣AE.......(ii)
From (i), and (ii), we conclude that AFDE is a parallelogram.
Similarly, BDEF is a parallelogram.
Now, in △DEF and △ABC, we have
∠FDE=∠A [Opposite angles of parallelogram AFDE)
and, ∠DEF=∠B [Opposite angles of parallelogram BDEF]
So, by AA-similarity criterion, we have
△DEf∼△ABC
