Detailed Solution

Let an denote the number of ways in which

a 2 × n rectangle be filled with tiles of size

1 × 2. Clearly, a1=1 and a2 = 2. For n3

we will build the titles one tile at a time. If the first tile is vertical, then we have 2 × (n-1) rectangle that can be tiles in an-1 ways.

If the first tile is horizontal, then the next tile is also horizontal and we are left with 2×(n2)rectangle and this can be tiled in an2ways. With the initial conditionsa1=1 and a2=2 this yields the sequence 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89

a10=89
