The word «right» can be appended to a statement to turn it into a question. For example, «You are going» is a declarative statement. But, «You are going, right?» is a question. This is somewhat informal. It indicates that the person asking expects a certain answer. If he had no idea whether you were going or not, he would ask, «Are you going?» Asking, «You are going, right?» indicates that he expects a «yes» answer.

What makes the example question in your post difficult is not that it ends with «right», but that it is phrased as a negative.

Suppose the question was phrased without «right». Like your first example. «You don’t know that, do you?» If you say «Yes», does that mean «yes, you are correct, I don’t know», or does it mean, «yes, I do know»? Such negative questions are a classic problem in English.

Suppose someone used «right» to a positively-worded question. «You are going, right?» The presence of «right» doesn’t change your answer. You would still say «yes» if you are going and «no» if you are not.
