Answer:

Option A.
csc\theta.

Explanation:

We have to simplify the term


cot\theta * sec\theta

As we know


cot\theta=(1)/(tan\theta )=(1)/((sin\theta )/(cos\theta ))=(cos\theta )/(sin\theta )

and
sec\theta =(1)/(cos\theta )

when we multiply these terms by each other
(cos\theta )/(sin\theta )* (1)/(cos\theta )=(1)/(sin\theta )=cosec\theta

Therefore option A.
csc\theta
is the answer.
