Two adjacent sides of a parallelogram AB...

Two adjacent sides of a parallelogram ABCD are given by `vec(AB)=2hati+10hatj+11hatk` and `vec(AD)=-hati+2hatj+2hatk`. The side AD is rotated by an acute angle `alpha` in the plane of the parallelogram so that AD becomes AD'. If AD' make a right angle withe the side AB then the cosine of the angle `alpha` is given by

A

`8/9`

B

`sqrt(17)/9`

C
