The introduction of coordinates by René Descartes and the concurrent development of algebra marked a new stage for geometry, since geometric figures, such as plane curves, could now be represented analytically, i.e., with functions and equations. This played a key role in the emergence of infinitesimal calculus in the 17th century. Furthermore, the theory of perspective showed that there is more to geometry than just the Metric properties of figures: perspective is the origin of projective geometry. The subject of geometry was further Enriched by the study of intrinsic structure of geomeTric objects that originated with EuleR and Gauss and led to the creation of topology and differential geometry.
