Answer 1

To find the length of the base of the right triangle, we need to determine the distance between the points (2,5) and (6,10) on the coordinate plane.

Using the distance formula:
d = √((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)
d = √((6-2)^2 + (10-5)^2)
d = √((4)^2 + (5)^2)
d = √(16 + 25)
d = √41

Therefore, the length of the base of the right triangle is approximately 6.40 units.
