A tangerine is smaller, less round, sweeter and contain less acid than an orange. They have virtually the same nutritional values (though obviously an orange has nearly twice as much as it's twice the size of a tangerine).
Tangerines are related to Mandarins, they are smaller than Oranges and the peel comes off easily. Oranges are larger, as well as more tart and sweet than tangerines.
