Correct Answer: 2
Solution : Given: $2 \sec ^2 \theta-9 \sec \theta+7=0$ Let $\sec\theta = x$ Now, $2x ^2-9x+7=0$ ⇒ $2x ^2-9x+7=0$ ⇒ $2x ^2-2x-7x+7=0$ ⇒ $2x(x-1)-7(x-1)=0$ $\therefore x = 1, \frac{7}{2}$ Now, $\cos ^2 \theta+\sec ^2 \theta$ $=\frac{1}{\sec ^2 \theta}+\sec ^2 \theta$ $=\frac{1}{x^2}+x^2 $ Putting the value of $x=1$, we get: $=1+1=2$ Hence, the correct answer is 2.
