I'm not sure I know what you mean by "mathematical tricks". There are no 
mathematical tricks. There are lots of procedures in mathematics, like 
substitutions, moving things from one side to the other of an equation, 
dividing through by common numbers, taking limits, integrating, and so 
on... But these procedures are all individually both legitimized and 
understood. The end result is always producing something that is easily 
recognized and evaluated. But as long as the steps are individually 
sound, it doesn't matter which of them you take.

It's very much like trying to cross a river, and you choose the next 
rock to jump on to help you get to the other side. First this rock, then 
this next one, then the next one, and so on. The objective isn't the 
rock, it's getting to the other side. Alternatively, you could take a 
different set of stones in a different sequence to do the same thing in 
the end.
