Let $r=e^{i\theta }\ne 1$. The geometric series from any starting index is bounded:Using summation by parts,Since the coefficients are nonincreasing and positive, the modulus is at most $K(a_N+a_m-a_N)=K{a}_m\to 0$. The Cauchy criterion proves convergence for every $\theta \notin 2\pi \mathbb{Z}$. This is a direct proof of the Dirichlet test in this setting.

For $a_n=1/n$, the imaginary parts of the convergent partial sums give convergence of the sine series at those angles. If $\theta \in 2\pi \mathbb{Z}$, every sine term is zero. Hence the sine series converges for all real angles.
