Given,

The equation of the curve are,


\begin{gathered} x=1+\cos \theta \\ y=1+2\sin \theta \end{gathered}

Taking the equation first as,


\begin{gathered} x-1=\cos \theta \\ \cos \text{ }\theta=x-1 \end{gathered}

Taking the equation second as,


\begin{gathered} y-1=2\sin \theta \\ \sin \text{ }\theta=(y-1)/(2) \end{gathered}

We know that,


\begin{gathered} \sin ^2\theta+\cos ^2\theta=1 \\ ((x-1)^2)/(1)+(\frac{y-1^{}}{2})^2=1 \\ ((x-1)^2)/(1)+\frac{(y-1)^2^{}}{4}^{}=1 \end{gathered}

This is the required rectangular equation.

Hence, option c is correct.
