Something that has always bothered me with the "one of us tells the truth, the other one lies" conundrums is couldn't you just ask a simple question with a known answer to check who's who? Something like "what's 1+1" or even a logic question like "if A is true and B is true, is the condition of A AND B true or false?"
Yes, that would let you know if the one you asked tells the truth or lies. But IIRC those riddles are usually constructed such that that is not enough to solve them. For example, sometimes there are more than two people that you need to identify. Or you need to find the correct door amongst multiple. All with a single question to one of the people.
