Let F : Mnn(R) → R where F(A) =tr(A). Show that F is a linear transformation. Find the kernel of F as well as its dimension. What is the image of F?

The Attempt at a Solution
I have shown that it is a linear transformation. But I am not sure about the Ker(F) and Im(F),
would Ker(F) just be {tr(A), for A in Mnn}? And would the Im(F) just be {a : a[itex]\in[/itex]ℝ}? Thanks.
