The given equation is \mathrm{\left(\cos ^2 \theta-\sin ^2 \alpha\right) \mathrm{x}^2+\left(\sin ^2 \theta-\sin ^2 \alpha\right) \mathrm{y}^2-2 \sin \theta \cos \theta \mathrm{xy}=0 }

\mathrm{\therefore } Angle between the lines

\mathrm{ =\tan ^{-1}\left|\frac{2 \sqrt{h^2-a b}}{a+b}\right|=\tan ^{-1}\left|\frac{2 \sqrt{\sin ^2 \theta \cos ^2 \theta-\left(\cos ^2 \theta-\sin ^2 \alpha\right)\left(\sin ^2 \theta-\sin ^2 \alpha\right)}}{\left(\cos ^2 \theta-\sin ^2 \alpha\right)+\left(\sin ^2 \theta-\sin ^2 \alpha\right)}\right| }

\mathrm{ =\tan ^{-1} \frac{2 \sin \alpha \cos \alpha}{1-2 \sin ^2 \alpha}=2 \alpha }

Hence option 1 is correct.
