Hi Alex,
Waterfall has been implemented since the 70's and is powerfull and very resilient (large projects, large # of stakeholders, traditional V cycle)
Agile has been more popular in the last 5 years as easier to implement and more reactive (ideal for start-ups, SMEs) and nowdays starts to be the most implemented one even in large PMOs.
The most combination so far is Agile with SCRUM methodologies.
Up to you to design a case with a MECE decision tree on this question ;-)
