Correct Answer: $\frac{\cos \theta}{1-\sin \theta}$


Solution : Given, $\frac{1+\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}$
Multiplying numerator and denominator by $(1-\sin \theta)$
= $\frac{(1+\sin \theta)\times (1-\sin \theta)}{\cos \theta\times (1-\sin \theta)}$
= $\frac{(1-\sin^2 \theta)}{\cos \theta\times (1-\sin \theta)}$
= $\frac{\cos^2 \theta}{\cos \theta\times (1-\sin \theta)}$
= $\frac{\cos \theta}{1-\sin \theta}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{\cos \theta}{1-\sin \theta}$.
