The correct answer is: $\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, \infty\right)$
Since centre of given hyperbola is $(0,0)$ Given that origin and $(1,1)$ lie in same region therefore $(1,1)$ lie inside the hyperbola.
$\begin{aligned}
& \therefore \frac{1}{a^2}-1-1 < 0 \Rightarrow \frac{2 a^2-1}{a^2} < 0 \Rightarrow a>\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \\
& \therefore a \in\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, \infty\right)
\end{aligned}$
