Coordinate Geometry is also Analytic Geometry, founded by Rene Descartes.
Geometry was not founded by any one person. Ancient Egyptians have been used an early stage of geometry as well as the Greeks.
The formal study of geometry has been attributed to Euclid, who lived in Alexandria about 300 BC.
Rene Descartes who was a French mathematician.
Analytical geometry was founded by the French mathematician, Renee Descartes. As for subsequent contributors to that subject, I will leave that for other contributors to add.

People who wanted to apply complex Algebra to real world concepts, like equations of a slope on a bridge founded analytic geometry.

Euclidean geometry has become closely connected with computational geometry, computer graphics, convex geometry, and some area of combinatorics. Topology and geometry The field of topology, which saw massive developement in the 20th century is a technical sense of transformation geometry. Geometry is used on many other fields of science, like Algebraic geometry. Types, methodologies, and terminologies of geometry: Absolute geometry Affine geometry Algebraic geometry Analytic geometry Archimedes' use of infinitesimals Birational geometry Complex geometry Combinatorial geometry Computational geometry Conformal geometry Constructive solid geometry Contact geometry Convex geometry Descriptive geometry Differential geometry Digital geometry Discrete geometry Distance geometry Elliptic geometry Enumerative geometry Epipolar geometry Euclidean geometry Finite geometry Geometry of numbers Hyperbolic geometry Information geometry Integral geometry Inversive geometry Inversive ring geometry Klein geometry Lie sphere geometry Non-Euclidean geometry Numerical geometry Ordered geometry Parabolic geometry Plane geometry Projective geometry Quantum geometry Riemannian geometry Ruppeiner geometry Spherical geometry Symplectic geometry Synthetic geometry Systolic geometry Taxicab geometry Toric geometry Transformation geometry Tropical geometry
