Video Summary

The problem involves painting squares in a shape so that adjacent squares do not share the same color. Aria uses four colors: red, blue, green, and yellow, with different quantities for each. By dividing the shape into smaller triangles of three squares each, it was determined that only three red squares could fit without touching each other. However, since Aria painted four squares red, the only position for the fourth red square is the one marked with an X. Therefore, the square marked X must be red. The solution concludes that the square with X is painted red.
