Correct Answer: 1


Solution : Given: $\left(\operatorname{cosec}^2 B-1\right)\left(\sec ^2 B-1\right)$
We know that
$\operatorname{cosec}^2 B = 1 + \cot^2 B$
$\sec^2 B = 1 + \tan^2 B$
$\left(\operatorname{cosec}^2 B-1\right)\left(\sec ^2 B-1\right) = \cot^2 B\times\tan^2 B$.
$=\cot^2 B \times \tan^2 B = \frac{1}{\tan^2 B}\times\tan^2 B = 1$
Hence, the correct answer is 1.
