As we learnt

 

Property of Transpose -

\left ( \alpha A \right ){}'= \alpha A{}'

(AB)^{'} =B^{'}A^{'}

- wherein

\alpha being scalar ; A{}' is transpose of A

 

 

 \left ( ABB'A \right )'=(B'A')'(AB)'

                      =\left ( AB \right )\left ( B'A' \right )= ABB'A'

So the given matrix is symmetric.
