Rotation an object (or line) by x and z resulting in an ending x and z
$begingroup$
I knew this equation in High School but that was 30 years ago. Let's say I have a cube (or line). I want to rotate it's x, y and z axis' such that the result has a specific x and z rotation. for instance I want my resulting x and z rotations to be 45 and 60 respectfully, I know I cannot rotate each axis by it's ending value and I have to rotate all three axis' but I can't remember how?
Thanks in advance!
