Correct Answer: $\operatorname{cosec} \theta+\cot \theta$


Solution : Given, $\frac{\cot \theta+\operatorname{cosec} \theta-1}{\cot \theta-\operatorname{cosec} \theta+1}$
We know, $\operatorname{cosec^2}θ−\cot^2θ=1$
$=\frac{\cot \theta+\operatorname{cosec} \theta-(\operatorname{cosec^2}θ−\cot^2θ)}{\cot \theta-\operatorname{cosec} \theta+1}$
$=\frac{\cot \theta+\operatorname{cosec} \theta-(\operatorname{cosec}θ−\cotθ)(\operatorname{cosec}θ+\cotθ)}{\cot \theta-\operatorname{cosec} \theta+1}$
$=\frac{(\operatorname{cosec}θ+\cotθ)[1-(\operatorname{cosec}θ-\cotθ)]}{\cot \theta-\operatorname{cosec} \theta+1}$
$=\frac{(\operatorname{cosec}θ+\cotθ)[1-\operatorname{cosec}θ+\cotθ)]}{\cot \theta-\operatorname{cosec} \theta+1}$
$=\operatorname{cosec}θ+\cotθ$
Hence, the correct answer is $\operatorname{cosec}θ+\cotθ$.
