Let $\bar{a} = a_1 \hat{i} + a_2 \hat{j} + a_3 \hat{k}$,where $a_1, a_2, a_3$ and $|\bar{a}|$ are rational numbers. If $\bar{a}$ makes an angle of $45^{\circ}$ with $\bar{b} = \sqrt{2} \hat{i} + 3 \sqrt{2} \hat{j} + 4 \hat{k}$,then $\bar{a}$ lies in:

  • A
    $XY$-plane
  • B
    $YZ$-plane
  • C
    $XZ$-plane
  • D
    along the bisector of the angle between $\hat{k}$ and $-\bar{b}$
