Question 73

Consider a rectangular board with odd side lengths, divided into unit squares. Tile the board with one corner square removed by dominoes in any manner. In one move, a domino may be slid one unit along its length to cover the empty square, leaving a new empty square two squares away from the old one. Prove that a sequence of moves can carry the empty square to any chosen corner.
