Let a and b be the legs of the right triangle.
Since the hypotenuse is 10, a^2+b^2=100.
Since the triangle's perimeter is 25, we have a + b + 10 = 25 and a + b = 15.
Recall that (a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2.
2ab = (a+b)^2 - (a^2+b^2) = 225 - 100 = 125.
Thus, the area of the triangle is (1/2)ab = 125 / 4.

Therefore, A is the answer.
Answer: A
