To find the length of the base of the triangle, we need to find the distance between the points (2,5) and (6,10) along the x-axis.
The difference between the x-coordinates of these two points is 6-2 = 4 units.
Therefore, the length of the base of the triangle is 4 units.
So, the correct answer is:
4 units
