Question
**Solving Trigonometric Equations**

**Problem:**
Solve the equation:
\[ \sin \theta - \cos \theta = \sqrt{2} \]

What is the solution in the interval \( 0 \leq \theta < 2\pi \)? Select the correct choice and fill in any answer boxes in your choice below.

**Choices:**

- **A.** \( \theta = \) [Input Box]  
  *(Simplify your answer. Type an exact answer, using \(\pi\) as needed. Type your answer in radians. Use integers or fractions.)*

- **B.** There is no solution.

**Explanation of Provided Information:**

This problem requires you to solve the trigonometric equation, \( \sin \theta - \cos \theta = \sqrt{2} \), and determine if there is a solution within one complete cycle of the unit circle, \( 0 \leq \theta < 2\pi \). If there is a solution, it should be expressed in radians with exact values where possible, using \(\pi\). If there is no solution, that should be indicated as well.
