Mathematicians are closer than ever to solving this complicated math problem.

Squaring the circle has a history of failed attempts dating back at least to the ancient Greeks. And in 1882, French mathematician Carl Louis Ferdinand von Lindemann proved that pi is transcendental, which means, among other things, that it’s impossible to draw a line of that length. Since the area of a circle depends on pi and the area of a square doesn’t, a solution was provably impossible.
The newly developed method describes a set of simple rules — simple for mathematical recipes, anyway — for this ridiculously complicated jigsaw puzzle. While it builds on previous attempts to solve the problem, it’s the first version to describe pieces that, in theory, can be drawn.
