Answer:

The triangles are similar

Explanation:

Since EF ║ UT, m∠FUT = m∠EFU because alternate interior angles are congruent when lines are parallel.

m∠UDT = m∠EDF because vertical angles are congruetnt

Therefore ΔUDF is similar to ΔFDE because if two angles of a triangle are congruent to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.
