Answer / Shagun Chahal

The paradigm shift from empirical mathematics (based on observation and measurement) to rational mathematics (based on logic and deduction) took place during the 17th century. This shift was facilitated by the works of mathematicians like Euclid, Descartes, and Newton, who developed a more systematic and rigorous approach to mathematical thinking.
