Suppose λ 1 , λ 2 , λ 3 is the roots of f ( x ) = x 3 + x 2 + x 1, g ( x ) = x 2 + x + 1, solve for a polynomial p(x) with rational coefficients such that g ( λ 1 ) , g ( λ 2 ) , g ( λ 3 ) is the root of it.

For every root λ of λ 0 and g ( λ ) = 1 / λ. Let p ( x ) = 1 + x + x 2 x 3 . Then f ( x ) = x 3 p ( 1 / x ) hence for every such λ, p ( g ( λ ) ) = p ( 1 / λ ) = f ( λ ) / λ 3 = 0, QED.
