Returns the matrix: R=[cos(t) -sin(t); sin(t) cos(t)]. y=R*x is the result of rotating x theta degress clockwise about the z-axis. One can retrive the angle of rotation via theta = acos(R(1)). INPUTS theta - angle of rotation (radians) OUTPUTS R - 2x2 Rotation matrix EXAMPLE R = rotation_matrix2D( pi/6 ) DATESTAMP 29-Sep-2005 2:00pm See also ROTATION_MATRIX3D
