2021 All-Russian Olympiad, 5

A teacher and her 30 students play a game on an infinite cell grid. The teacher starts first, then each of the 30 students makes a move, then the teacher and so on. On one move the person can color one unit segment on the grid. A segment cannot be colored twice. The teacher wins if, after the move of one of the 31 players, there is a $1\times 2$ or $2\times 1$ rectangle , such that each segment from it's border is colored, but the segment between the two adjacent squares isn't colored. Prove that the teacher can win.

Fill each cell with an integer from $1$-$7$ so each number appears exactly once in each row and column. In each ``cage" of three cells, the three numbers must be valid lengths for the sides of a non-degenerate triangle. Additionally, if a cage has an ``A", the triangle must be acute, and if the cage has an ``R", the triangle must be right.
