Correct Answer: $\frac{357}{484}$
Solution :
Given: $\operatorname{cosec} \theta=1 \frac{7}{22}$
⇒ $\operatorname{cosec} \theta=\frac{29}{22}$
We know that: $\operatorname{cosec}^{2}\theta=\cot^{2}\theta+1$
⇒ $\cot^{2}\theta=\frac{841}{484}–1$
⇒ $\cot^{2}\theta=\frac{841–484}{484}$
⇒ $\cot^{2}\theta=\frac{357}{484}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{357}{484}$.
