For the given question, we will draw two examples of different right triangles that could lie on a line with a slope of 2/5

So, first, we need a line with a slope of 2/5

Let the line has the following equation:


y=(2)/(5)x

The graph of the examples will be as shown in the following figure:

As we can see, the hypotenuse of the right triangles lies on the line of a slope 2/5

Draw two examples of different right triangles that could lie on a line with a slope-example-1
