Except that has little to nothing to do with it. Of course the shape of the function doesn’t matter if you apply a constraint such that the area is the same. The question at hand is if that is a valid constraint, which it probably technically isn’t, but it might be close enough to not be significant. Also, trig has nothing to do with it at all. Yes, trig is often combined with pre-calc, but they aren’t really related concepts.
