In the figure above, is the outer rectangle a square?

(1) The enclosed figure is a rectangle.
(2) The area of the outer figure is 64.

Statement II doesn't play any role at all, so answer can be A or E

So let's see the statement I..
The outer figure can be made in various ways, one odd could be square and others can have sides of different lengths and different angles
E

Hi chetan2u
Can you please explain the highlighted portion. It is not clear.

The one which is given in the question is a square and if you press the opposite diagonals towards each other, another quadrilateral is formed which will not be square
