AHSME 1983 Problem 20

    If tan⁡α\tan{\alpha} and tan⁡β\tan{\beta} are the roots of x2−px+q=0x^2 - px + q = 0, and cot⁡α\cot{\alpha} and cot⁡β\cot{\beta} are the roots of x2−rx+s=0x^2 - rx + s = 0, then rsrs is necessarily (A) pq(B) 1pq(C) pq2(D) qp2(E) pq\textbf{(A)} \ pq \textbf{(B)} \ \frac{1}{pq} \textbf{(C)} \ \frac{p}{q^2} \textbf{(D)}\ \frac{q}{p^2} \textbf{(E)}\ \frac{p}{q}
