How is one point a possibility here? A/c to the question, circle should intersect two parallel lines but if it intersects only one of the parallel lines then isn't it against what is asked in the question?

I think your issue might stem from the wording of the question, which is "a circle can intersect two parallel lines?".

You seem to be assuming the question asks "a circle intersects BOTH parallel lines"

The challenge with the higher level questions is sometime in the wording!

I also misread the question at first, so I a rule of thumb I like to follow for higher level questions is "if it seems too simple you probably misread it!"
