Correct Answer

B

Explanation

Evaluate ʃ sec² ѳ dѳ = tan ѳ + kTo evaluate the integral ∫ sec²θ dθ, we can use the integral formula for the derivative of the tangent function:∫ sec²θ dθ = tan(θ) + Cwhere C is the constant of integration.Therefore, the integral of sec²θ with respect to θ is equal to tan(θ) + C.
