Answer:

  - \frac{7}{5 \sqrt{2} }

Step-by-step explanation:

If B is in third quadrant B/2 will be in second . ((π+B)/2). So cosB/2 will be negative .

Use formula now

cos \: b =  \frac{24}{25}  \\ cos \: b = 2cos {}^{2}  \frac{b}{2}  - 1 =  \frac{24}{25}  \\ 2cos {}^{2}  \frac{b}{2} =  { \frac{49}{25} }  \\   cos \frac{b}{2} =  \sqrt{ \frac{49}{50} }
