(1) Yes
(2) Yes
(3) Yes
Because the set of square matrices of the same order is a linear space
So we only need to prove that the addition and multiplication of matrix are closed
For example, (2) the sum of symmetric matrix is still symmetric matrix; K times of symmetric matrix is still symmetric matrix
