1.5 units squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a Triangle formula: A = 1/2bh

Pythagorean Theorem: a² + b² = c²

Since you are missing the h to find the area of the triangle, you must use Pythagorean to find the 3rd missing side (it is a right triangle so you can use Pythagorean).

Step 1: Use Pythagorean

2.5² = 1.5² + b²

4 = b²

b = 2

Step 2: Switch variables

b (from Pythagorean) = h (height for Area)

Step 3: Solve for Area

A = 1/2(1.5)(2)

A = 1.5

And you have your final answer.
