problem

Let

P(x)

be a polynomial with rational coefficients such that when

P(x)

is divided by the polynomial

x^2 + x + 1

, the remainder is

x+2

, and when

P(x)

is divided by the polynomial

x^2+1

, the remainder is

2x+1

. There is a unique polynomial of least degree with these two properties. What is the sum of the squares of the coefficients of that polynomial?
