Summary. Let $\widehat{\widehat T}_n$ and $\overline U_n$ denote the modified Chebyshev polynomials defined by $\widehat{\widehat T}_n (x) = {T_{2n + 1} \left(\sqrt{x + 3 \over 4} \right) \over \sqrt{x + 3 \over 4}}, \quad \overline U_{n}(x) = U_{n} \left({x + 1 \over 2}\right) \qquad (n \in \mathbb{N}_{0},\ x \in \mathbb{R}).$ For all $n \in \mathbb{N}_{0}$ define $\widehat{\widehat T}_{-(n + 1)} = \widehat{\widehat T}_n$ and $\overline U_{-(n + 2)} = - \overline U_n$, furthermore $\overline U_{-1} = 0$. In this paper, summation formulae for sums of type $\sum\limits^{+\infty}_{k = -\infty} \mathbf a_{\mathbf k}(\nu; x)$ are given, where $\bigl(\mathbf a_{\mathbf k}(\nu; x)\bigr)^{-1} = (-1)^k \cdot \Bigl( x \cdot \widehat{\widehat T}_{\leftk + 1 \over 2\right] - 1} (\nu) +\widehat{\widehat T}_{\leftk + 1 \over 2\right]}(\nu)\Bigr) \cdot \Bigl(x \cdot \overline U_{\leftk \over 2\right] - 1} (\nu) + \overline U_{\leftk \over 2\right]} (\nu)\Bigr)$ with real constants $ x, \nu $. The above sums will turn out to be telescope sums. They appear in connection with projective geometry. The directed euclidean measures of the line segments of a projective scale form a sequence of type $(\mathbf a_{\mathbf k} (\nu;x))_{k \in \mathbb{Z}}$ where $ \nu $ is the cross-ratio of the scale, and x is the ratio of two consecutive line segments once chosen. In case of hyperbolic $(\nu \in \mathbb{R} \setminus] - 3,1)$ and parabolic $\nu = -3$ scales, the formula $\sum\limits^{+\infty}_{k = -\infty} \mathbf a_{\mathbf k} (\nu; x) = {\frac{1}{x - q_{{+}\atop(-)}}} - {\frac{1}{x - q_{{-}\atop(+)}}} \eqno (1)$ holds for $\nu > 1$ (resp. $\nu \leq - 3$), unless the scale is geometric, that is unless $x = q_+$ or $x = q_-$. By $q_{\pm} = {-(\nu + 1) \pm \sqrt{(\nu - 1)(\nu + 3)} \over 2}$ we denote the quotient of the associated geometric sequence.
