Cultivating mathematical creativity is essential in mathematics education. One of the techniques for developing mathematical creative thinking is the implementation of divergent tasks. Through studying the contemporary literature this paper looks at various approaches to the definition of the concept of a divergent thinking and divergent problems. This article considers the possibilities of development of creative thinking of students on mathematics lessons through the use of the divergent tasks. Properties and the main types of divergent mathematical problems are distinguished. In addition several examples of divergent problems of different types are presented.encreative thinkingdivergent thinkingdivergent tasks2021 International Young Scholars' Conference№10DIVERGENT TASKS AS A TOOL FOR PROMOTING MATHEMATICAL CREATIVE THINKINGOther
