Are these two antiderivatives equivalent?
Regarding the anti derivative of: cos 3 ( x ) sin 3 ( x )
Is the answer sin 4 ( x ) ( 2 sin 2 ( x ) 3 ) 12 equivalent to sin 4 ( x ) 4 .
If so, how? Integral Calculator says they're equivalent, but I don't understand how.

Explanation:
The first function is indeed an antiderivatives of cos 3 ( x ) sin 3 ( x ). But if you differentiate the second one, what you get is cos ( x ) sin 3 ( x ), rather than cos 3 ( x ) sin 3 ( x ).

Explanation:
If both are antiderivatives of the same function, then their difference will be constant.
But their difference is sin 6 x 6 which is not constant.
