Examples
math.rotationMatrix(math.pi / 2) // returns [[0, -1], [1, 0]]
math.rotationMatrix(math.bignumber(1)) // returns [[bignumber(cos(1)), bignumber(-sin(1))], [bignumber(sin(1)), bignumber(cos(1))]]
math.rotationMatrix(math.complex(1 + i)) // returns [[cos(1 + i), -sin(1 + i)], [sin(1 + i), cos(1 + i)]]
math.rotationMatrix(math.unit('1rad')) // returns [[cos(1), -sin(1)], [sin(1), cos(1)]]
math.rotationMatrix(math.pi / 2, [0, 1, 0]) // returns [[0, 0, 1], [0, 1, 0], [-1, 0, 0]]
math.rotationMatrix(math.pi / 2, matrix([0, 1, 0])) // returns matrix([[0, 0, 1], [0, 1, 0], [-1, 0, 0]])
