Let $PQ$ and $RS$ be the tangent at the extremities of the diameter $PR$ of a circle of radius $r$. If $PS$ and $RQ$ intersect at a point $X$ on the circumference of the circle, then $(PQ.RS)$ is equal to

  • A

    $(PX).(RX)$

  • B

    $(QX).(SX)$

  • C

    $(PX)^2 + (RX)^2$

  • D

    $(QX)^2 + (SX)^2$
