Correct Answer: $\frac{6 \sqrt{10}}{43}$
Solution :
$\sin \theta = \frac{43}{47}$
$\therefore \cos \theta = \sqrt{1-\sin^2 \theta} = \sqrt{1-(\frac{43}{47})^2}$ = $\sqrt\frac{360}{47^2}$ = $\frac{6\sqrt{10}}{47}$
$\cot \theta = \frac{\cos\theta}{\sin \theta} = \frac{\frac{6\sqrt{10}}{47}}{\frac{43}{47}} = \frac{6\sqrt{10}}{43}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{6\sqrt{10}}{43}$.
