I would suggest a combination of resize and crop. Use the resize tool to 
adjust the size in a proportional way, ie resize by same percentage each 
side, so that at least one side is the final size you want and the other is 
bigger than the remaining side.

Then use the crop tool to trim off the excess so the remaining side that is 
larger than what you need is the correct size. The crop tool is the knife 
icon.

That way your photo is still of the same aspect ratio.
