If the negative square root is found to be one of your solutions, then that is indicative of a pair of imaginary roots (the imaginary i). According to the conjugate rule, if you have one solution that is imaginary, you will have another but with the opposite sign. For example, if a solution to a quadratic is found to be 2 - i, then its conjugate, 2 + i is also a solution. They will ALWAYS go in pairs. Same thing with radical solutions. If one solution is found to be
then will also be a solution.

Step-by-step explanation:
We want to calculate the right-endpoint approximation (the right Riemann sum) for the function:
On the interval [-1, 1] using five equal rectangles.
Find the width of each rectangle:
List the <em>x-</em>coordinates starting with -1 and ending with 1 with increments of 2/5:
-1, -3/5, -1/5, 1/5, 3/5, 1.
Since we are find the right-hand approximation, we use the five coordinates on the right.
Evaluate the function for each value. This is shown in the table below.
Each area of each rectangle is its area (the <em>y-</em>value) times its width, which is a constant 2/5. Hence, the approximation for the area under the curve of the function <em>f(x)</em> over the interval [-1, 1] using five equal rectangles is:
