Problem

A circle of radius 5 is inscribed in a rectangle as shown. The ratio of the length of the rectangle to its width is 2:1. What is the area of the rectangle?

$\textbf{(A)}\ 50\qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 100\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 125\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 150\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 200$


Solution

If the radius is $5$, then the width is $10$, hence the length is $20$. $10\times20= \boxed{\textbf{(E)}\ 200}.$
