Answer:

a)True

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes it is true a pin support can not resist the rotation motion . It can resist only lateral or we can say that only linear motion of structure and can not resit angular moment of motion about hinge or pin joint.On the other hand a fixed support can resist linear as well rotation motion of structure.
