$A(a, 0)$ and $B(-a, 0)$ are two fixed points. If $\angle A - \angle B = \theta$,what is the locus of point $C$ of triangle $ABC$?

  • A
    $x^2 + y^2 + 2xy \cot \theta = a^2$
  • B
    $x^2 - y^2 + 2xy \tan \theta = a^2$
  • C
    $x^2 + y^2 + 2xy \tan \theta = a^2$
  • D
    $x^2 - y^2 + 2xy \cot \theta = a^2$
