Just because something is hard doesn't mean you shouldn't try,it means you should just try harder.

answer >10, it can be any number of circles because the center of circle can be anywhere on the line L, center in not the intersection of line L and line AB had it been the case the solution would have been 1

since centre lies on line l i.e. l is the locus of radius .so taking it as diameter of the various circle you will find you can draw infinite no. of circles with centre on line l and chord as AB. though u will get only one circle ehre this chord Ab will be diamete.
