Detailed Solution

We have been given,
The length of a rectangle is twice the diameter of a circle.
The circumference of the circle is equal to the area of a square of side 22 cm.
Equating both the formula,
2πr=side×side 2×227×radius = 22×22 Radius r=77 cm As we know the length of a rectangle is twice the diameter of a circle.
Thus, length = 2(2×radius).
Length =277×2
Length = 308 cm
We know, the perimeter of the rectangle is 668 cm.
 2length+breadth=668 Solving further,
length+breadth=334 cm 308+breadth=334length=308 cm breadth =26 cm Therefore, the breadth of the rectangle is 26 cm.
Hence, option 2 is correct.
