Answer

sec2 θ + cosec2 θ

1cos2θ+1sin2θsin2θ+cos2θcos2θsin2θ1cos2θsin2θsec2θ(cosec2θ)\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{\cos^2 \theta} + \dfrac{1}{\sin^2 \theta} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta}{\cos^2 \theta\sin^2 \theta} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{\cos^2 \theta\sin^2 \theta} \\[1em] \Rightarrow \sec^2 \theta (\cosec^2 \theta)

Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
