Given:


\sec \theta=\infty

To find the value of the angle:

It can be written as,


\begin{gathered} \sec \theta=\infty \\ (1)/(\cos \theta)=\infty \\ \cos \theta=0 \\ \theta=\cos ^(-1)(0) \\ \theta=(\pi)/(2),(3\pi)/(2),(5\pi)/(2)\ldots\text{.} \end{gathered}

Thus, the answer is,


odd\text{ multiples of }(\pi)/(2)

Hence, the correct option is D.
