The dimension of $H_{n} $ ,the space of all $ n times n $ matrices, as a vector space over $ mathbb{R} $ , is

$begingroup$


Let $ n $ be a positive integer and let $ H_{n} $ be the space of all $ n times n $ matrices
$ A = (a_{ij}) $ with entries in $ mathbb{R} $ satisfying $ a_{ij} = a_{rs} $ whenever $ i + j = r + s ,, (i,j,r,s=1,2,dots,n)$ . Then the dimension of $ H_{n} $ , as a vector space over $ mathbb{R} $ , is



$ 1. quad n^{2} hspace{50pt} 2.quad n^{2}-n+1 hspace{50pt} 3. quad 2n+1 hspace{50pt} 4.quad 2n-1 $



I am trying to solve it by taking $ n=3 $ for generalized form of matrix and found



M=
$ a_{11}$ $a_{12}$ $a_{13}$



$ a_{21}$ $ a_{22} $ $ a_{23}$



$ a_{31}$ $a_{32} $ $a_{33}$



where $ a_{12} = a_{21} $ , $ a_{13} = a_{31}= a_{22} $ , $ a_{23} = a_{32} $
Now I can't understand how to conclude it?



Can I conclude it as follows:
Since the matrix has $ 5 $ non-trivial distinct elements, so the dimension of $ H_{n} $ is $ 5 $ and as $ 5= 2 * 3 -1 $ so ant answer is $ 2n -1 $ ?

Consider the diagonals of the matrix going form lower left to upper right. All the entries in those diagonals are of the form $a_{ij}$, where i+j=k for some fixed k. Count the number of such diagonals and those are the equivalence classes of entries.
