Peer reviewedRahim, Medhat; Sawada, Daiyo – School Science and Mathematics, 1989
Discusses an activity for the use of tangrams in which students flip, rotate, slide, or patch the pieces in order to construct a particular shape. Examples include provisions for constructing two trapezoids; transforming a scalene triangular region into quadrilaterals of equal area; and transforming a cross into a picture frame. (RT)
