    Why Does Leg Selection in Trig Substitution Affect the Integral Result?

    If we allow the x to b an integer like 4 that is greater than 3, sqrt(x^2-9)-3arctan(sqrt(x^2-9)/3) results in 0.477 while sqrt(x^2-9)+3arcsin(3/x) gives 5.18

    Why Does Leg Selection in Trig Substitution Affect the Integral Result?

    But when we substitute something for x, why do they not give the same result? And also they don't have the same derivative..!? Only the derivate of sqrt(x^2-9)-3arctan(sqrt(x^2-9)/3) results in the original integrand
