    It is closer to 1.4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    This is a 45 45 90 triangle

    To find the hypotenuse of this triangle it is any side length times the square root of two.

    Formula: Square Root = sqrt

    Hypotenuse = SideLength*sqrt (2); 1*sqrt (2) = 1.412 ...

    Rounded to the nearest tenths it is closer to 1.4 than 1.5
