as in 5 boxes, with right end points.
I was looking through my notes and I must have copied down my formulas wrong because NOTHING is working for me. Please help!

Definite Integrals suck. I like the Indefinite Integral with Anti-derivatives much better.
First let us find delta(x)
(b - a)/n
(1 - 0)/5
delta(x) = 1/5
Since we are using right endpoints, we don't start with 0 as that would be starting with left endpoints. With right endpoints, we will start with delta(x).
So your points will be:
f(1/5), f(2/5), f(3/5), f(4/5), f(5/5)
Keep in mind that all you are doing at this point is just finding the length from the x axis to the curve; In other words you are finding y.
--------------------------------------…
In a Riemann Sum, you just multiply delta x by all of those answers like this:
delta(x) * [f(1/5) + f(2/5) + f(3/5) + f(4/5) + f(5/5)]
Since we know delta(x), we can go ahead and plug that in:
1/5 * [f(1/5) + f(2/5) + f(3/5) + f(4/5) + f(5/5)]
Now we just evaluate each of those f(x) values using sin(x^2)
sin((1/5)^2) + sin((2/5)^2) + sin((3/5)^2) + sin((4/5)^2) + sin(1)
Doing that I get:
(0.039989 + 0.159318 + .352274 + 0.597195 + .841471)
Summing all of that I get:
1.99025
So now we do:
1/5 [ 1.99025]
And the answer is:
.398049

you will not find the ' area ' , just an approximation to it
partition points are [ 0,0.2 , 0.4 , 0.6 , 0.8 , 1 ] and right endpoints means compute
[0.2] { sin (0.2)² + sin (0.4)² + sin (0.6)² + sin (0.8)² + sin 1 }
