Let P(x)=anxn+an−1xn−1+⋯+a0P(x)=a_{n} x^{n}+a_{n-1} x^{n-1}+\cdots+a_{0} be a polynomial with real coefficients, an≠0a_{n} \neq 0. Suppose every root of PP is a root of unity, but P(1)≠0P(1) \neq 0. Show that the coefficients of PP are symmetric; that is, show that an=a0,an−1=a1,…a_{n}=a_{0}, a_{n-1}=a_{1}, \ldots
