If the straight line $x\cos \alpha + y\sin \alpha = p$ be a tangent to the hyperbola $\frac{{{x^2}}}{{{a^2}}} - \frac{{{y^2}}}{{{b^2}}} = 1$, then

  • A

    ${a^2}{\cos ^2}\alpha + {b^2}{\sin ^2}\alpha = {p^2}$

  • B

    ${a^2}{\cos ^2}\alpha - {b^2}{\sin ^2}\alpha = {p^2}$

  • C

    ${a^2}{\sin ^2}\alpha + {b^2}{\cos ^2}\alpha = {p^2}$

  • D

    ${a^2}{\sin ^2}\alpha - {b^2}{\cos ^2}\alpha = {p^2}$
