() Only one line can pass through a single point.
(i) There are an infinite number of lines which pass through two distinct
(ii) A terminated line can be produced indefinitely on both the sides.
(iv) If two circles are equal, then their radii are equal.

Answers
Answer:
(i) Only one line can pass through a single point is false, because there are infinite lines passes through a single point.
(ii) There are an infinite number of lines which pass through two distinct point is false, because through two distinct point only one line can pass .
(iii) A terminated line can be produced indefinitely on both sides is true, because a line can be extended from both sides.
(iv) If two circle are equal then their radii are equal is true, because if two circle are equal then their center is coincide and inscribe equal area thus their radii are equal.
(v) True, according to Euclid's First Axiom, "Things which are equal to the same thing are equal to one another".

Question :-

(ii) There are an infinite number of lines which pass through two distinct points.
answers.
(1) Only one line can pass through a single point.
(ii) A terminated line can be produced indefinitely on both the sides.
(iv) Iftwo circles are equal, then their radii are equal.
In Fig. 2.9. if AB=PQ and PQ=XY, then AB=XY.
Answer :-
(i) False
Reason : If we mark a point O on the surface of a paper. Using pencil and scale, we can draw infinite number of straight lines passing
through O.
(ii) False
Reason : In the following figure, there are many straight lines passing through P. There are many lines, passing through Q. But there is one and only one line which is passing through P as well as Q.
(iii) True
Reason: The postulate 2 says that “A terminated line can be produced indefinitely.”
(iv) True
Reason : Superimposing the region of one circle on the other, we find them coinciding. So, their centres and boundaries coincide.
Thus, their radii will coincide or equal.
(v) True
Reason : According to Euclid’s axiom, things which are equal to the same thing are equal to one another.
