If a line makes angles $90^{\circ}$,$135^{\circ}$,and $45^{\circ}$ with the positive directions of $X$,$Y$,and $Z$-axes respectively,then its direction cosines are:

  • A
    $\left(0, -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)$
  • B
    $\left(0, \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)$
  • C
    $\left(0, -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)$
  • D
    $\left(0, \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)$
