I usually like to use trig functions in degrees rather than radians-- just
easier to visualize for me. "math.inc" has some simple little 'converter'
functions, sind() and cosd()

So in your diagram, for example...
T5: y'= <0,cosd(180), sind(180>

But for your matrix illustrations, I don't know if they should be used (since I
don't know enough about matrix math).
    like,  -sind  instead of  -sin  ??
