    Suppose you came across a board.
    On one of its side u saw its written: "The statement written behind this board is true".

    When u turn it backwards and u saw, it was written that: "The statement behind this board is false".

    Which of the two statements is true?

    hay none of the statements are right.

    let us assume that "The statement written behind this board is true" is a correct statement then the statement behind that "The statement behind this board is false" is correct
    =><= (contradictory to the first statement)

    now let us assume that the statement "The statement behind this board is false" is the right statement, that means the statement behind that "The statement written behind this board is true" is false
    =><= (contradictory statements)

    So none of the statements are right

    Re: Board

    Both statements can also be true.

    see , read first statement"The statement behind this board is false"

    if it true it means the statement "The statement behind this board is True" is false which mean the statement "The statement behind this board is false"
    " is true.and of course hence true the 2nd one also, because it says"The statement behind this board is True."

    hence both statements are true.
