Let $M$ and $m$ respectively be the maximum and minimum values of the function $f(x) = \tan^{-1}(\sin x + \cos x)$ in the interval $[0, \frac{\pi}{2}]$. Then the value of $\tan(M - m)$ is equal to:

  • A
    $2 + \sqrt{3}$
  • B
    $2 - \sqrt{3}$
  • C
    $3 + 2\sqrt{2}$
  • D
    $3 - 2\sqrt{2}$
