Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A right triangle has a right angle in it. The base and height are then the sides that make the right angle. You can change the 2.5 to a fraction 5/2 or leave it a decimal and just use your calculator. Once the base and height are drawn, you don't have to calculate the hypotenuse (the longest side) just connect the third side. See image. Also, def do this on graph paper it's easier. The new triangle should be bigger than the original this time bc 2.5 is bigger than 1 and so it makes your shape bigger.
