I think it's A

OpenStudy (montesanna99):

Ok do u know why cuz I can't figure it out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A is correct. If segment AD is an altitude of ABC, then angle ADB is a right angle. Since right angles are congruent and angle DBA is the included in both triangles, then from Angle-Angle similarity the two triangles are similar.
