To find the perimeter (amount of tape needed) for the basketball court, you need to add up the lengths of all four sides of the rectangle.

Since two sides of the rectangle are given (20 ft and 15 ft), you need to find the length of the other two sides.

Assuming the basketball court will be a standard rectangular shape, the other two sides will also be 20 ft and 15 ft.

So, the perimeter (tape needed) = 20 ft + 20 ft + 15 ft + 15 ft = 70 ft.

Therefore, the answer is B. 70 ft.
