Problem

A tetromino consists of four squares connected along their edges. There are five possible tetromino shapes, II, OO, LL, TT, SS, shown below, which can be rotated or flipped over. Three tetrominos are used to completely cover a 3×43 \times 4 rectangle. At least one of the tiles is an SS tile. What are the other two tiles? [See figure in original PDF]
