The lines of the form $x \cos \phi + y \sin \phi = P$ are chords of the hyperbola $4x^2 - y^2 = 4a^2$ which subtend a right angle at the centre of the hyperbola. If these chords touch a circle with centre at $(0,0)$,then the radius of that circle is

  • A
    $\frac{2a}{\sqrt{3}}$
  • B
    $\frac{a}{\sqrt{3}}$
  • C
    $\sqrt{2}a$
  • D
    $\frac{a}{\sqrt{2}}$
