False. When one side of the earth is at a high tide, the opposite side is not also at high tide

It is true because the near side of moon is attracted by the gravitational force due to alignment of planet in one Straight line. The opposite side is due to the movement of earth to wards moon side during alignment. So in both side there will be high tide at same time.
