Q2.  Write True or False. Give reasons for your answers.
          (i) Line segment joining the centre to any point on the circle is a radius of the circle.
          (ii) A circle has only finite number of equal chords.
          (iii) If a circle is divided into three equal arcs, each is a major arc.
          (iv) A chord of a circle, which is twice as long as its radius, is a diameter of the circle.
          (v) Sector is the region between the chord and its corresponding arc.
          (vi) A circle is a plane figure.

          (ii) False [∵ A circle can have an infinite number of equal chords.]
          (iii) False [∵ Each part will be less than a semicircle.]
          (iv) True [∵ Diameter = 2 × Radius]
          (v) False [∵ The region between the chord and its corresponding arc is a segment.]
