Lie Groups and Lie Algebras, VI

Let R1R_1 and R2R_2 be two irreducible reduced root systems. Show that if W(R1)W(R_1) and W(R2)W(R_2) have the same order, R1R_1 is isomorphic to R2R_2 or R2−R_2^-. (Use the classification.) Does this result still hold without the assumption that R1R_1 is irreducible?
