Let two non-collinear unit vectors $$\widehat a$$ and $$\widehat b$$ form an acute angle. A point $$P$$ moves so that at any time $$t$$ the position vector $$\overrightarrow {OP} $$ (where $$O$$ is the origin) is given by $$\widehat a\cos t + \widehat b\sin t.$$ When $$P$$ is farthest from origin $$O,$$ let $$M$$ be the length of $$\overrightarrow {OP} $$ and $$\widehat u$$ be the unit vector along $$\overrightarrow {OP} $$. Then :
A
$$\widehat u = {{\widehat a + \widehat b} \over {\left| {\widehat a + \widehat b} \right|}}\,\,and\,\,M = {\left( {1 + \widehat a.\,\widehat b} \right)^{1/2}}$$
B
$$\widehat u = {{\widehat a - \widehat b} \over {\left| {\widehat a - \widehat b} \right|}}\,\,and\,\,M = {\left( {1 + \widehat a.\,\widehat b} \right)^{1/2}}$$
C
$$\widehat u = {{\widehat a + \widehat b} \over {\left| {\widehat a + \widehat b} \right|}}\,\,and\,\,M = {\left( {1 + 2\widehat a.\,\widehat b} \right)^{1/2}}$$
D
$$\widehat u = {{\widehat a - \widehat b} \over {\left| {\widehat a - \widehat b} \right|}}\,\,and\,\,M = {\left( {1 + 2\widehat a.\,\widehat b} \right)^{1/2}}$$
