Let $a = \sin^2 x \hat{i} + \cos^2 x \hat{j} + \hat{k}$, where $x \in R$. If the pairs of vectors $(a, \hat{i})$, $(a, \hat{j})$, and $(a, \hat{k})$ are adjacent sides of $3$ distinct parallelograms and $A$ is the sum of the squares of the areas of these parallelograms, then $A$ lies in the interval

  • A
    $(0, 1)$
  • B
    $[3, 4]$
  • C
    $[0, 2]$
  • D
    $[1, 2]$
