A historic problem in the history of math was to find the area under the graph of $f(x)=x^2$ between $[0,1]$.
There wasn't a ready-made formula for the area of this shape, as was known for a triangle or a square. However, [Archimedes](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Quadrature_of_the_Parabola) found a method to compute areas enclosed by a parabola and line segments that cross the parabola.
