Answer:

Side DE is the smallest side

Explanation:

The shortest side of a triangle is opposite the smallest angle, and the largest side of a triangle is opposite the largest angle.

Side EF is the largest because D is the largest angle.

Side DE is the smallest side because F is the smallest angle
