where α is a simple rotation angle (the value in radians of the [[angle of rotation]]) and cos(β<sub>''x''</sub>), cos(β<sub>''y''</sub>) and cos(β<sub>''z''</sub>) are the "[[direction cosine]]s" locatingof the angles between the three coordinate axes and the axis of rotation. (Euler's Rotation Theorem).
