The correct Answer is:
To determine how many lines can pass through one given point, we can follow these steps: 1. **Identify the Point**: Start by identifying the point through which we want to draw lines. Let's denote this point as P. 2. **Draw the First Line**: Draw a line that passes through point P. This can be any line in any direction. For example, we can draw a horizontal line. 3. **Draw Additional Lines**: Now, draw another line that also passes through point P. This line can be at a different angle than the first line. For instance, we can draw a vertical line. 4. **Continue Drawing Lines**: Continue to draw more lines through point P. Each time, you can change the angle or direction of the line. You can draw lines at various angles, such as diagonal lines, or lines that are close to parallel to the first line. 5. **Conclusion**: Since you can keep drawing lines at different angles and directions, you can conclude that there is no limit to the number of lines that can pass through a single point. Therefore, the answer is that an infinite number of lines can pass through one given point. **Final Answer**: Infinite number of lines can pass through one given point. ---
