ΔAFD∼ΔABC  ⇒((DF)/(AF))=((CB)/(AB))  ∠AEM=∠ABM=90°  ⇒AEMB is cyclic.  ⇒∠AEF=∠AMB  ⇒ΔAEF∼ΔAMB  ((EF)/(AF))=((BM)/(AB))=(1/2)×((CB)/(AB))=(1/2)×((DF)/(AF))  ⇒EF=((DF)/2)  i.e. E is midpoint of DF.  ⇒DE=EF ✓
$$\Delta{AFD}\sim\Delta{ABC} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\frac{{DF}}{{AF}}=\frac{{CB}}{{AB}} \\ $$$$\angle{AEM}=\angle{ABM}=\mathrm{90}° \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{AEMB}\:{is}\:{cyclic}. \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\angle{AEF}=\angle{AMB} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\Delta{AEF}\sim\Delta{AMB} \\ $$$$\frac{{EF}}{{AF}}=\frac{{BM}}{{AB}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×\frac{{CB}}{{AB}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}×\frac{{DF}}{{AF}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{EF}=\frac{{DF}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${i}.{e}.\:{E}\:{is}\:{midpoint}\:{of}\:{DF}. \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{DE}={EF}\:\checkmark \\ $$
