No, logic and formal proof have been integral parts of mathematics for thousands of years. The ancient Greeks, such as Euclid and Pythagoras, were known for their use of logical reasoning and formal proofs. However, the development of formal logic as a field of study did occur more recently in the 19th and 20th centuries.

true
True or False. Logic and proof in math have been in existence sine the time of the ancient Greeks. true
At least three thousand years.
true
Depends on your definition of recent. Formal proofs and logic have existed for a long time by their rigorisation only really began in the 19th century and a fully-developed theory of mathematics using logic and formal proofs wasn't constructed until the beginning of the 20th century.
Mathematical logic and proof theory (a branch of mathematical logic) for proof
In a formal proof, logical reasoning and axioms are used to reach a conclusion. By following the rules of logic and making valid deductions based on the given information, a proof can demonstrate the truth of a statement. Furthermore, the structure of the proof, typically composed of statements and reasons, helps to show the validity of the conclusion.
