Each square of $1\times 1$, of a $n\times n$ grid is colored using red or blue, in such way that between all the $2\times 2$ subgrids, there are all the possible colorations of a $2\times 2$ grid using red or blue, (colorations that can be obtained by using rotation or symmetry, are said to be different, so there are 16 possibilities). Find:
a) The minimum value of $n$.
b) For that value, find the least possible number of red squares.

A rectangular pool table has a hole at each of three of its corners. The lengths of sides of the table are the real numbers $a$ and $b$. A billiard ball is shot from the fourth corner along its angle bisector. The ball falls in one of the holes. What should the relation between $a$ and $b$ be for this to happen?
