Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 3 : -(13/4) 

Given :

(secθ - cosecθ)/secθ = 2.5/3

Formula used :

secθ = hypotenuse/base 

tanθ = perpendicular/base 

tanθ = sinθ/cosθ 

Calculations :

(secθ - cosecθ)/secθ = 2.5/3

(secθ - cosecθ)/secθ = 5/6

⇒ 6secθ - 6cosecθ = 5secθ 

⇒ secθ = 6cosecθ 

⇒ sinθ = 6cosθ 

⇒ tanθ = 6 

(2sinθ + cosθ)/(2cosθ - sinθ) 

⇒ cosθ(2sinθ/cosθ + 1)/cosθ(2 – sinθ/cosθ)

⇒ (2tanθ + 1)/(2 – tanθ)

⇒ (2 × 6 + 1)/(2 – 6)

⇒ 13/-4 = -13/4 

∴ Option 3 is the correct choice.
