Options:
  • A $\frac{1}{\pi} \operatorname{Cos}^{-1}\left[\frac{\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}}{\mathrm{c}}\right]$
  • B $\frac{1}{2 \pi} \cos ^{-1}\left[\frac{b+c}{2 a}\right]$
  • C $\frac{1}{2 \pi} \operatorname{Cos}^{-1}\left[\frac{\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{c}}{2 \mathrm{~b}}\right]$
  • D $\frac{1}{2 \pi} \operatorname{Cos}^{-1}\left[\frac{\mathrm{a}+\mathrm{b}}{2 \mathrm{c}}\right]$
