The correct answer is: $f^{\prime \prime \prime}$
Since, $f$ is an even function.
Let
$$
\begin{aligned}
f(x) & =\cos x \\
f^{\prime}(x) & =\sin x \\
f^{\prime \prime}(x) & =-\cos x \\
f^{\prime \prime \prime}(x) & =\sin x
\end{aligned}
$$
Since, $\sin x$ is an odd function. $\therefore$ In $f^{\prime \prime \prime}$ it is an odd function
Therefore option (2) is correct.
