We have learned that we can consider spaces of matrices,
polynomials or functions as vector spaces. For the following
examples, use the definition of subspace to determine whether the
set in question is a subspace or not (for the given vector space),
and why.

entries of their diagonal are equal. That is, all 2 × 2 matrices of
the form: A = a b c a
