Answer:

B. 600 ft

Explanation:

The formula for the Perimeter of a right triangle = Side a + Side b + Side c

The perimeter of a right triangle is 60 feet

If the lengths of the sides of the triangle are each multiplied by 10, what is the perimeter of the new right triangle?

Hence, the perimeter of the new right triangle = 10 × 60ft

= 600ft

Option B is the correct Option.
