Abstract: Let $$ A_{m,n}(a)=sum_{j=0}^m (-4)^j {m+jchoose 2j}sum_{k=0}^{n-1} sin(a+2kpi/n) cos^{2j}(a+2kpi/n) $$ and $$ B_{m,n}(a)=sum_{j=0}^m (-4)^j {m+j+1choose 2j+1}sum_{k=0}^{n-1} sin(a+2kpi/n) cos^{2j+1}(a+2kpi/n), $$ where $mgeq 0$ and $ngeq 1$ are integers and $a$ is a real number. We present two proofs for the following results: (i) If $2m+1 equiv 0 , (mbox{mod} , n)$, then $$ A_{m,n}(a)=(-1)^m n sin((2m+1)a). $$ (ii) If $2m+1

otequiv 0 , (mbox{mod} , n)$, then $A_{m,n}(a)=0$. (iii) If $2(m+1) equiv 0 , (mbox{mod} , n)$, then $$ B_{m,n}(a)=(-1)^m frac{n}{2} sin(2(m+1)a). $$ (iv) If $2(m+1)

otequiv 0 , (mbox{mod} , n)$, then $B_{m,n}(a)=0$.
