The correct answer is: $\frac{11}{2 \sqrt{30}}$
$\begin{aligned} & \text { We have, } \cosh 2 x=241 \\ & \Rightarrow \frac{1+\tanh ^2 x}{1-\tanh ^2 x}=241 \\ & \Rightarrow 1+\tanh ^2 x=241-241 \tanh ^2 x \\ & \Rightarrow 242 \tanh ^2 x=240 \Rightarrow \tanh ^2 x=\frac{240}{242}=\frac{120}{121} \\ & \Rightarrow \tanh x=\frac{2 \sqrt{30}}{11} \Rightarrow \operatorname{coth} x=\frac{11}{2 \sqrt{30}}\end{aligned}$
