If your not cutting off any from the long edge you won't lose your points. The main thing I learned is if you err, err on the side of putting more towards the top. When I started mine measured exactly what yours measures. Please don't get discouraged. I found "perfecting" one before going on to the others really helped. The up side is that I really learned a lot about joining unequal triangles. Hope this makes sense. Let us know how you are doing.
