The step towards proving the similarity of triangles DEF and GED is:

ANGLE E IS CONGRUENT TO ITSELF.

ΔDEF is a right triangle. Its hypotenuse is EF, its long leg is DF, its short leg is DE.
ΔGED is also a right triangle. Its hypotenuse is DE, its long leg is DG, its short leg is GE.

Only Angle E is in both triangles and its measure remains the same.
