We aren't here to do the work for you; we ask you to show your own thinking, so we can help you go further. See our submission guidelines.

The first thing I see here is the cosines of multiple angles, which suggests a connection to the fact that [MATH](\cos\theta + i \sin\theta)^n = \cos(n\theta) + i \sin(n\theta)[/MATH]. Is that something you are familiar with?

Try writing the polynomial, with x replaced by [MATH]\cos\theta + i \sin\theta[/MATH], with that in mind.
 
I don't know how to approach this problem
You are given the polynomial P(z)=k=0nakzk=0\displaystyle P(z) = \sum\limits_{k = 0}^n {{a_k}{z^k}} = 0 with z0=cos(θ)+isin(θ)\displaystyle z_0=\cos(\theta)+i\sin(\theta) is a root.
Notation: z0=cos(θ)+isin(θ)=cis(θ)=exp(iθ)\displaystyle z_0=\cos(\theta)+i\sin(\theta)=cis(\theta)=exp(i\theta)
To do this one needs to know these facts (z0)k=cos(kθ)+isin(kθ)=cis(kθ)=exp(ikθ)\displaystyle (z_0)^k=\cos(k\theta)+i\sin(k\theta)=cis(k\theta)=exp(ik\theta)
By definition of a root we know that means P(z0)=k=0nak(z0)k=0\displaystyle P(z_0) = \sum\limits_{k = 0}^n {{a_k}{(z_0)^k}} = 0
OR k=0nakcos(kθ)+ik=0naksin(kθ)=0\displaystyle \sum\limits_{k = 0}^n {{a_k}\cos (k\theta )} + i\sum\limits_{k = 0}^n {{a_k}\sin (k\theta )} = 0
If a complex number P(z0)\displaystyle P(z_0) is equal to zero then (P(z0))=?\displaystyle \Re(P(z_0))=?
