The proposition that can not be verified using the given information is


If\text{ }\hat{\text{RS}}\cong\hat{TV,}\text{ then }\bar{\text{RS}}\cong\bar{TQ}

Because there is no result (regarding chords) relating a chord that doesn't go through the center Q with a chord going through it. Look at the conclusion of the proposition


\bar{RS}\cong\bar{TQ}

RS doesn't go through Q, and TQ does it.
