Geometry did not originate in India.
I believe it originated in ancient Egypt and Babylon.
Muhammad ibn Musa al-Khwarizmi
Arabic: Al-Jabira or something similar
The word "algebra" came from the Arabic "al-jabr," meaning restoration. But algebra itself came earlier from India, the ancient Babylonians, Greeks, Chinese, and Egyptians.
Arabic, from al-jabr (الجبر) literally meaning restoration.
Algebra originated in Arabic (الجبر), with the book "The Compendious Book on Calculation by Completion and Balancing" (الكتاب المختصر في حساب الجبر والمقابلة).
George Boole is credited with the invention of Boolean algebra which was introduced in his first book, The Mathematical Analysis of Logic (1847).
The term boolean comes from boolean algebra, which was invented by George Bool in 1854, and described in his work, "An Investigation of the Laws of Thought".
Since "pre-" means before, then pre-algebra would be before algebra. Conversely, algebra would be after pre-algebra. Generally, the next class after a pre-algebra class would be Algebra I, followed by Algebra II.
