I think that you are referring to an aponeurosis, but your question doesn't really make grammatical sense.

Tendon
What is a broad flat sheet of tendons?
Flat tendon is the aponeurosis which is derived from the superficial fascia situated at the sole of the foot and on the palm. Thus it is called according to the region (ie palmar aponeurosis and plantar aponeurosis)

What three things does connective tissue contain?
Connective tissue can contain more than 3 things. However, to have a broad general view, connective tissue proper always consists of 1. cells 2. extracellular fibers and 3. a ground substance that the extracellular fibers are embedded in. The types of cells are several. The extracellular fibers have been classified and subclassified into a great number of categories. The ground substance also varies greatly from one region of the body to another.

What are fibrous bands that connect muscle to bones?
A tendon (or sinew) is a tough band of fibrous connective tissue that usually connects muscle to bone. A tendon is capable of withstanding tension. Tendons are similar to ligaments and fascia as they are both made of collagen, except that ligaments join one bone to another bone, and fascia connect muscles to other muscles. Tendons and muscles work together and can only exert a pulling force. At each end of a muscle, the collagen fibers come together to form a bundle of fibers called a tendon that attaches them to bones. If it forms a broad tendinous sheet it is called an aponeurosis.
What is A flat fibrous sheet of connective tissue that attaches a muscle to a bone or to other tissues?
This is called an aponeurosis. These are layers of flat broad tendons. They are found in the abdominal region and the palm of the hand and the plantar surface of the foot. One runs from the frontalis muscle to the occipitalis on the top of the head.
