Abstract. In this article we present some additional and complementary remarks to an earlier paper on finite trigonometric power sums. First, we extend the results to include an offset angle in the trigonometric power in the summand. Next we include more complicated phase factors accompanying the trigonometric powers. Despite their more intricate nature, we find that these trigonometric power sums are still rational. Finally, we not only prove the conjecture raised in the earlier paper, but also generalize it.
