Tangram as geometry resource

The TANGRAM is a puzzle that consists of 7 pieces. It is a game that requires ingenuity, imagination and, above all, patience.

It is a great stimulus for creativity and can be used in the teaching of mathematics to introduce concepts of flat geometry, and to promote the development of psychomotor and intellectual capacities because it allows to flirt in a playful way the manipulation Concrete materials with the formation of abstract ideas.

The geometric configuration of its pieces (5 triangles, 1 square and 1 parallelogram), as well as its versatility by the more than one thousand compositions possible with only seven figures, make it a mathematical game.

Rules:
1. With these elements, figures must be constructed. That is to say, at the time of forming the different figures should not remain neither one of the pieces without being used, besides that these should not overlap.
2. The Tangram is a planimetric game, that is to say, all the figures must be contained in the same plane.
