P and Q be two points of E2, with (x1, x2) and (y1, y2) as their respective coordinates. Then, the coordinates of the directed line segment
are (x1y1, x2y2).

      Denoting x1y1 and x2y2 by z1 and z2 respectively, the coordinates of

can be expressed as

      (0.1)

      Next, we consider an orthogonal transformation of coordinate axes given by

      (0.2)

      where

is orthogonal, with its determinant equal to 1.

and are denoted by
Then

      (0.5)

of E2 transform according to a certain law in Equation (0.6) when referring to a new coordinate system.

      This was first pointed out by Felix Klein in 1872.

      Similarly, if we consider n vectors, it can be shown that there exists an object with components

in a coordinate system, according to

      The flourishing of the subjects of tensors and Differential Geometry and Mechanics is due to Einstein and Grassman. Then, many mathematicians and researchers developed Differential Geometry with tensor applications.

      Sasaki and Hsu defined and studied almost all contact structures and their integrability conditions. In 1970, Yano and Okumura studied structure manifold and Walker, A.G. (1955) studied the properties of the manifold (λu, v,) with an almost product structure in which there exists a (1,1) tensor field, f, whose square is unity. K. Yano (1963) generalized the concept of an almost complex structure and defined f-structures as a (1,1) tensor field f (satisfying f3 + f = 0). In 1972, K. Kenmotsu studied a certain class of an almost contact manifold. Janssen and Vanhecke (1981) named this structure a Kenmotsu structure and the differentiable manifold equipped with this structure is called a Kenmotsu manifold. Many authors have studied slant immersions in almost Hermitian manifolds. The study of Differential Geometry of tangent and cotangent bundles was started by Sasaki (1958) and then Yano and Davies and Ledger. The theory of submanifolds as a field of Differential Geometry is as old as Differential Geometry itself. A study of the submanifolds of a manifold is a very interesting field of Differential Geometry. In 1981, B.Y. Chen, D.E. Blair, A. Bejancu, M.H. Sahid (1994-95), and some others studied different properties of submanifolds. Sasaki (1960) and others studied differentiable manifolds in detail.

      Differential Geometry is the study of geometric properties of curves, surfaces, and their higher dimensional analogues using the methods of Tensor Calculus. For the study of curve by this method of calculus, its parametric representation is a covariant and discuss tangent and normal and binormal, which is of fundamental importance to the theory of the curve. We will study the geometric properties of surface imbedded in the three-dimensional Euclidean space by means of Differential Geometry, termed as intrinsic properties and intrinsic geometry of surface. The study of the geometry of surfaces was carried out from the point of view of a two-dimensional being whose universe is determined by the surface parameters u1 and u2 and it was based entirely on the study of the first quadratic differential form.
