The correct answer from each drop-down menu is:

If cost 8 = 8 and tan20 = 17, then cos28 = -8/17.

To solve this problem, we can use the double angle formula for cosine:

cos2θ = 2cos²θ - 1

We know that cos20 = 17, so we can substitute this value into the formula:

cos2(20°) = 2(cos20°)² - 1

cos2(20°) = 2(17²)² - 1

cos2(20°) = -8/17

Therefore, the correct answer is cos28 = -8/17.
