For the following two (02) items:
Let sin⁡A+sin⁡B=p\sin A + \sin B = p and cos⁡A+cos⁡B=q\cos A + \cos B = q.

What is pq\dfrac{p}{q} equal to?

Options

  1. Atan⁡(A−B2)\tan \left(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\right)
  2. Bcot⁡(A−B2)\cot \left(\dfrac{A-B}{2}\right)
  3. Ctan⁡(A+B2)\tan \left(\dfrac{A+B}{2}\right)
  4. Dcot⁡(A+B2)\cot \left(\dfrac{A+B}{2}\right)
