Analysis applies the concepts and methods of the calculus to various mathematical entities. Geometry is concerned with the spatial side of mathematics, i.e., the properties of and relationships between points, lines, planes, figures, solids, and surfaces.
Topology studies the structures of geometric objects in a very general way.
The term applied mathematics loosely designates a wide range of studies with significant current use in the empirical sciences. It includes computer science, mathematical physics, probability theory, and mathematical statistics. When you buy a car, follow a recipe, or decorate your home, you're using math principles.
