And on the other side it is written "What ever is written on the other side of this paper is true".

The second one is true. Bcoz the first one says the the second is false, and the second one is saying that the first side has the false statement. So this statement should be wrong. Hence the first side is not true while the second side has the true statement.

assume the first one to be true.
so the second statement is false.
so the second state becomes "What ever is written on the other side of this paper is false"(i.e. the true statement)
which shows that the first statement was true.
so the first one is true.

2 one is true! because first is saying that other side is false and the second is saying that other side is true. This means that the first side of the paper is true according to the second side but the second side is false according to the first side. So This means that the second side is true!
Got my point?
Ha! Ha! Ha!!

this is da most succinct and classic paradox. its referred 2 as a tautology coz its redundant. it can b replaced by a simple statement 'this statement is false' here, as the point of reference changes and da intial condition then becomesa premise which is exactly opposite it cant b said clearly which staement is true

no solution...
c if v take the 1st statement 2 b true....
it says the statement on the other side is false..
which means the statement on the second side is false...
i.e. The statement written on the first side cant b true which is contradictory to our supposition..
Whereas if v take the second side 2 b true
i.e. the statement on the first side is true...
the statement on the second side is false...
which is again contradictory to our supposition..
i agree with necro philia...
its a paradox
