The differential equation of the family of curves $r^2 = a^2 \cos 2\theta$,where '$a$' is an arbitrary constant,is:

  • A
    $r \frac{dr}{d\theta} + r^2 \tan 2\theta = 0$
  • B
    $\frac{dr}{d\theta} = -r \tan 2\theta$
  • C
    $\frac{dr}{d\theta} = r \tan 2\theta$
  • D
    $\frac{dr}{d\theta} = -r \cot 2\theta$
