Is $int_{0}^{infty} frac{sin^2 x }{x^2}dx$ equal to $int_{0}^{infty} frac{sin x }{x}dx$?
I saw this in a solution to a problem and can't see why this would be the case. Tried substition and other techniques.

It can be a simple coincidence. Does this appear as a step in a proof ? Provide more context.

$$
int_{mathbb{R}}frac{sin^{2}x}{x^{2}}dx = left[sin^{2}xleft(-frac{1}{x}right)right]^{infty}_{-infty} - int_{mathbb{R}} 2sin xcos x left(-frac{1}{x}right)dx \
=int_{mathbb{R}}frac{sin 2x}{x}dx = int_{mathbb{R}}frac{sin y}{y}dy
$$
Here we use integration by parts and the substitution $y = 2x$.
