Piano.
Piano belongs to a percussion instrument family. in order to produce a sound strings has to be struck by hammer. The striking action defines piano as a percussion instrument. Pianist is unable to produce the sound directly, like violinist or guitarist, for that reason piano can not be classified to string instrument family.
A piano is member of several groups. First of all, a piano is a string instrument, because its main source of sound is the vibration of the strings. It's also a keyboard instrument (because it is played by touching the keys of the keyboard) and a percussion instrument(and idea of the composer Bela Bartok, if I'm correct; he considered the piano to be a percussive instrument because in a piano the strings are hit by hammers).
A piano is both a percussion instrument and a string instrument. Inside a piano, tiny hammers strike strings to make pitches. It is a string instrument in that the strings are what vibrate to make the sound, but it is a percussion instrument in that it has a keyboard and strikes to make sound.
