                       Section 2.11 Reference Frames and Unit Vector Sets
                       P2.11.1: Determine the numerical values of the transformation matrix elements of
                       Eq. (2.11.19) if α, β, and γ have the values:

                                                   α = 30 °,   β = 45 °,    γ = 60 °

                                                                –1
