21.5-21.7, due on December 4

Difficult:
    The proofs in sections 21.5-21.6 all fit together nicely, but as was mentioned in class, they don't really imply theorem 21.3

Reflective:
    I find the table of cyclotomic polynomials in section 21.7 quite elegant. The fact that they all seem to have coefficients in the set {-1, 0, 1} is stated, but I find it interesting that they all seem to follow a simple pattern as well.
