The document provides information about the Tangram puzzle. It is a Chinese puzzle made of seven geometric shapes - five triangles of different sizes, a square, and a rhomboid - cut from a single square sheet. These seven pieces can be rearranged to form different shapes. The Tangram was invented in China approximately 200 years ago and provides benefits like developing spatial skills and understanding how shapes can be decomposed and recomposed. It allows classifying shapes and developing positive feelings about geometry.

cutting a square of thin material into five triangles, a square, and a rhomboid which are capable of being recombined in many different figures. Tangram The Tangram is a deceptively simple set of seven geometric shapes made up of five triangles (two small triangles, one medium triangle, and two large triangles), a square, and a parallelogram. ... Tangram pieces are widely used to solve puzzles that require the making of a specified shape using all seven pieces. How is it started Invented in China approximately 200 years ago, a tangram is a two-dimensional re- arrangement puzzle created by cutting a square into seven pieces — seven geometric shapes called “tans” (Slocum et al 2003). Benefits of tangram classify shapes.
