Correct Answer: $\frac{8}{17}$
Solution : Given, $\operatorname{cosec} \theta=\frac{17}{15}$ ⇒ $\sin \theta =\frac{1}{\operatorname{cosec} \theta}= \frac{15}{17}$ Now, $\cos \theta = \sqrt{1-\sin^2 \theta}$ ⇒ $\cos \theta = \sqrt{1-(\frac{15}{17})^2}$ ⇒ $\cos \theta = \sqrt{\frac{64}{289}}$ ⇒ $\cos \theta = \frac{8}{17}$ Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{8}{17}$.
