Answer:

B

Explanation:

B.

Side lengths that for a right triangle will always follow the following rule:

a^2+b^2=c^2

Where a and b are the legs of the triangle, and c is the hypotenuse.

So to see this we can put it into that equation.

1.5^2+2^2=2.5^2

2.25+2=6.25

6.25=6.25

Therefore, these side lengths do form a right triangle.
