The foci of a hyperbola are the same as those of the ellipse with equation $9 x^2+16 y^2=144$.

If the length of the transverse axis of this hyperbola is $2 \cos \alpha$, then its equation is:

A

$$ \frac{x^2}{7-\cos ^2 \alpha}-\frac{y^2}{\cos ^2 \alpha}=1 $$

B

$$ \frac{x^2}{\cos ^2 \alpha}-\frac{y^2}{7-\cos ^2 \alpha}=1 $$

C

$$ \frac{x^2}{\cos ^2 \alpha}-\frac{y^2}{7+\cos ^2 \alpha}=1 $$

D

$$ \frac{x^2}{\cos ^2 \alpha}-\frac{y^2}{5-\cos ^2 \alpha}=1 $$
