Solution

The correct option is A

$G i v e n, s i n α + s i n β = \frac{- 21}{65} a n d c o s α + c o s β = \frac{- 27}{65} O n s q u a r i n g a n d a d d i n g t h e a b o v e e q u a t i o n s, w e g e t s i n^{2} α + s i n^{2} β + 2 s i n α s i n β + c o s^{2} α + c o s^{2} β + 2 c o s α c o s β = {(\frac{21}{65})}^{2} + {(\frac{27}{65})}^{2} \Rightarrow 2 + 2 (s i n α s i n β + c o s α c o s β) = \frac{1170}{4225} \Rightarrow 2 + 2 c o s (α - β) = \frac{1170}{4225} \Rightarrow 4 c o s^{2} (\frac{α - β}{2}) \Rightarrow c o s^{2} (\frac{α - β}{2}) = \frac{9}{130} \Rightarrow c o s (\frac{α - β}{2}) = - \frac{3}{\sqrt{130}} ∵ π < α - β < 3 π$
