choice A is out because AB is not perpendicular to AC

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

choice C is also out because DC is not perpendicular to AC

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

choice B is out because angle DEC is not a vertical angle to angle BEA

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

So that leaves choice D as the final answer
