The line $\frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b}=1$ moves in such a way that $\frac{1}{a^2} + \frac{1}{b^2} = \frac{1}{2c^2},$ where $a, b, c \in R_0$ and $c$ is constant, then locus of the foot of the perpendicular from the origin on the given line is -

  • A

    $x^2 + y^2 = c^2$

  • B

    $x^2 + y^2 = 2c^2$

  • C

    $x^2 +  y^2 = \frac{c^2}{2}$

  • D

    $x^2 + y^2 = 4c^2$
