Pass the element reference to the method

<input name="" type="checkbox" value="" id="one<?php echo $i; ?>"  onclick="check(this)"/>

then check the checked property value

function check(el) {
    if (el.checked) {
        alert("cheked");
    }
}

Note: Since you are using jQuery, instead of using inline event handlers try to use jQuery event handlers

In your script the problem is, id is a variable holding the actual id so you need to use string concatenation

function check(id) {
    if ($("#" + id + ":checked").length == 1) {
        alert("cheked");
    }
}

Also since the id is a string, it has to be enclosed in a '' in the click handler call

<input name="" type="checkbox" value="" id="one<?php echo $i; ?>"  onclick="check('one<?php echo $i; ?>')"/>
