If the line \[x\cos \alpha +y\sin \alpha =p\] represents the common chord of the circles \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}={{a}^{2}}\] and \[{{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+{{b}^{2}}(a>b),\] where A and B lie on the first circle and P and Q lie on the second circle, then AP is equal to

A. \[\sqrt{{{a}^{2}}+{{p}^{2}}}+\sqrt{{{b}^{2}}+{{p}^{2}}}\]
B. \[\sqrt{{{a}^{2}}-{{p}^{2}}}+\sqrt{{{b}^{2}}-{{p}^{2}}}\]
C. \[\sqrt{{{a}^{2}}-{{p}^{2}}}-\sqrt{{{b}^{2}}-{{p}^{2}}}\]
D. \[\sqrt{{{a}^{2}}+{{p}^{2}}}-\sqrt{{{b}^{2}}+{{p}^{2}}}\]
Answer» D. \[\sqrt{{{a}^{2}}+{{p}^{2}}}-\sqrt{{{b}^{2}}+{{p}^{2}}}\]
