Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{11}{12}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\begin{aligned} & \text {Let } \frac{b+c}{9}=\frac{c+a}{10}=\frac{a+b}{11}=k \\ & \Rightarrow b+c=9 k, c+a=10 k \text { and } a+b=11 k \\ & \text { and } a+b+c=15 k \\ & \therefore a=6 k, b=5 k \text { and } c=4 k \\ & \because \frac{\cos A+\cos B}{\cos…
