∀ {𝕜 : Type u_1} {E : Type u_2} [inst : RCLike 𝕜] [inst_1 : NormedAddCommGroup E] [inst_2 : InnerProductSpace 𝕜 E]
  {T : E →ₗ[𝕜] E}, T.IsSymmetric → ((∀ (x : E), inner 𝕜 (T x) x = 0) ↔ T = 0)

A symmetric linear map T is zero if and only if ⟪T x, x⟫_ℝ = 0 for all x. See inner_map_self_eq_zero for the complex version without the symmetric assumption.
