Tangram is an ancient Chinese puzzle that challenges you to arrange seven geometric pieces into a specific shape. The seven pieces, called tans, include five triangles of varying sizes, one square, and one parallelogram. Together they can form hundreds of different silhouettes, from animals and people to abstract designs and letters. Each puzzle shows you a target outline, and you must rotate, flip, and position all seven pieces to fill it exactly with no gaps or overlaps. The beauty of Tangram lies in how such a small set of simple shapes can create an enormous variety of recognizable forms. Some shapes appear obvious but prove surprisingly tricky, while others look impossible until the right rotation reveals the solution. It has captivated puzzle enthusiasts for centuries.
