$A$ 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 $\alpha, (0 < \alpha < \frac{\pi}{4})$ with the positive direction of the $x$-axis. The equation of its diagonal not passing through the origin is

  • A
    $y(\cos \alpha - \sin \alpha) - x(\sin \alpha - \cos \alpha) = a$
  • B
    $y(\cos \alpha + \sin \alpha) - x(\sin \alpha - \cos \alpha) = a$
  • C
    $y(\cos \alpha + \sin \alpha) + x(\sin \alpha + \cos \alpha) = a$
  • D
    $y(\cos \alpha + \sin \alpha) + x(\sin \alpha - \cos \alpha) = a$
