I was going to say "You're a smart engineer - you figure it out" but
then I realized you didn't describe it fully so it's ambigous. Do you
mean just using sines and cosines in a 2 by 2 array like you learned
in high school, or do you mean how do you click the circular arrow
icon in the toolbar of a MATLAB plot to grab a plot with your mouse
and move/rotate it around? Or maybe something else entirely?

I have a sine wave which is drfting very slowly and the lines through the maximas and minimas separately are making a fixed angles(theta) with the existing x-axis.Now,I would like to just rotate the axis by this angle theta,so that I can view this sine wave as oscillating about the x-axis.I have gone through the help to find makehgtform,but it isnt clear to me,how this works out for me.I hope Im clear now,any suggestions are welcome.

Can someone help me.
