The correct answer is:
$\frac{-\pi^2}{1440}$
$\begin{aligned} & \lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\cos 7 x^{\circ}-\cos 2 x^{\circ}}{x^2} \\ & =\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\cos \left(\frac{7 \pi}{180}\right) x-\cos \left(\frac{2 \pi}{180}\right) x}{x^2} \\ & =\frac{\left(\frac{2 \pi}{180}\right)^2-\left(\frac{7 \pi}{180}\right)^2}{2} \\ & \quad \ldots\left[\because \lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{\cos m x-\cos n x}{x^2}=\frac{n^2-m^2}{2}\right] \\ & =\frac{-\pi^2}{1440}\end{aligned}$
