The correct answer is: $0$
For continuity at $\mathrm{x}=0$
$\begin{aligned} & \lim _{x \rightarrow 0} f(x)=f(0) \Rightarrow \lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \log \left(\sec ^2 x\right) \cot ^2 x=K+1 \\ & \Rightarrow \lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \log \left(1+\tan ^2 x\right)^{\frac{1}{\tan ^2 x}}=K+1 \\ & \Rightarrow \log _e=K+1 \\ & \Rightarrow 1=K+1 \\ & \Rightarrow K=0\end{aligned}$
