Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's draw this (see diagram).

We know this is in the third Quadrant, and we also know the opposite and adjacent side lengths of the right triangle: opposite is -5 and adjacent is -9.

We want to find cotangent, which is adjacent / opposite. So, we have:

cot(θ) = -9/-5 = 9/5.

The answer is B.
