Hint: Here, we will use the trigonometric identity ${\sec ^2}\theta - {\tan ^2}\theta = 1 $to simplify the given equation and then by applying the simple formulae and operations the value is calculated.

Complete step-by-step answer:
Given, $\dfrac{{\sec \theta + \tan \theta - 1}}{{\tan \theta - \sec \theta + 1}}$
AS, we know, the trigonometric identity ${\sec ^2}\theta - {\tan ^2}\theta = 1$. So let us substitute the value of 1 in the numerator as ${\sec ^2}\theta - {\tan ^2}\theta $, we get
$ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{\sec \theta + \tan \theta - ({{\sec }^2}\theta - {{\tan }^2}\theta )}}{{\tan \theta - \sec \theta + 1}}$
And also we know that ${\sec ^2}\theta - {\tan ^2}\theta = (\sec \theta + \tan \theta )(\sec \theta - \tan \theta )$. Substituting it in the above formula, we get
$ \Rightarrow \dfrac{{(\sec \theta + \tan \theta ) - ((\sec \theta + \tan \theta )(\sec \theta - \tan \theta ))}}{{\tan \theta - \sec \theta + 1}}$
Let us take common $(\sec \theta + \tan \theta )$term in the numerator, we get
$
   \Rightarrow \dfrac{{(\sec \theta + \tan \theta )(1 - (\sec \theta - \tan \theta ))}}{{\tan \theta - \sec \theta + 1}} \\
   \Rightarrow \dfrac{{(\sec \theta + \tan \theta )(1 - \sec \theta + \tan \theta )}}{{\tan \theta - \sec \theta + 1}} \\
 $
Now, from the above equation, $(1 - \sec \theta + \tan \theta )$term gets cancel and we will be left with
$ \Rightarrow \sec \theta + \tan \theta $
Hence, $\dfrac{{\sec \theta + \tan \theta - 1}}{{\tan \theta - \sec \theta + 1}} = \sec \theta + \tan \theta $.
So, option C is the correct option.
