A past participle is a form of verbs that, if formed regularly, has the form of "stem+ed".

The past participle of "tangle" is "tangled" and the sentence with the past participle is:

I stepped into the middle of the tangled vines.

(actually the last sentence also has a past participle in it, but not only, so I am not choosing it).
