If a tangent having slope $m = \frac{1}{3}$ to the ellipse $\frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1$ $(a > b)$ is a normal to the circle $(x + 1)^2 + (y + 1)^2 = 1$,then $a^2$ lies in the interval:

  • A
    $\left(\frac{2}{5}, 4\right)$
  • B
    $\left(\frac{1}{2}, 2\right)$
  • C
    $\left(1, \frac{10}{9}\right)$
  • D
    $(3, 5)$
