Yes, René Descartes is credited with developing the Cartesian coordinate system, which uses two perpendicular axes (x and y) to define a plane. This system allows for the representation of geometric shapes algebraically and laid the groundwork for analytic geometry. Descartes' work significantly influenced mathematics and science, enabling the integration of algebra and geometry.
