JEE Math Practice Question

A square of side a lies above the $$x$$-axis and has one vertex at the origin. The side passing through the origin makes an angle $$\alpha \left( {0 < \alpha < {\pi \over 4}} \right)$$ with the positive direction of x-axis. The equation of its diagonal not passing through the origin is :

  1. A.$$y\left( {\cos \alpha + \sin \alpha } \right) + x\left( {\cos \alpha - \sin \alpha } \right) = a$$
  2. B.$$y\left( {\cos \alpha - \sin \alpha } \right) - x\left( {\sin \alpha - \cos \alpha } \right) = a$$
  3. C.$$y\left( {\cos \alpha + \sin \alpha } \right) + x\left( {\sin \alpha - \cos \alpha } \right) = a$$
  4. D.$$y\left( {\cos \alpha + \sin \alpha } \right) + x\left( {\sin \alpha + \cos \alpha } \right) = a$$
