You have a $7\times 7$ board divided into $49$ boxes. Mateo places a coin in a box.
a) Prove that Mateo can place the coin so that it is impossible for Emi to completely cover the $48$ remaining squares, without gaps or overlaps, using $15$ $3\times1$ rectangles and a cubit of three squares, like those in the figure.
