C

As 6 is radius so rectangular area 180.
180=18×10
Length 18

+1 for D.

Shaded Area = 180 – 36π
Radius of the circle = 6
Meaning, Area of Circle = 36π and Total area of Rectangle = 180

Diameter of Circle = Width of Rectangle = 2 * 6 = 12
Total area of Rectangle = L * B = 180
L * 12 = 180
L = 15

Hence, D.

Area of the white Circle is $$36π$$

Area of the shaded region is $$180 – 36π$$

Total Area of the rectangle is $$( 180 – 36π ) + 36π = l*12$$ { As breadth is twice the radius of the circle }

Or, $$180 = 12l$$

So, $$l = 15$$, Answer must be (D)
