  • A
    $\frac{a+b}{2 \sin (\theta / 2)}$
  • B
    $\frac{a+b}{2 \cos (\theta / 2)}$
  • C
    $\frac{a-b}{2 \cos (\theta / 2)}$
  • D
    $\frac{a+b}{\cos (\theta / 2)}$

Two adjacent sides of a parallelogram $ABCD$ are given by $\overrightarrow{AB} = 2\hat{i} + 10\hat{j} + 11\hat{k}$ and $\overrightarrow{AD} = -\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} + 2\hat{k}$. The side $AD$ is rotated by an acute angle $\alpha$ in the plane of the parallelogram so that $AD$ becomes $AD'$. If $AD'$ makes a right angle with the side $AB$,then the cosine of the angle $\alpha$ is given by
