Three coordinate rotations in a sequence can describe any rotation in 3 dimensions. These sequences thus have three angle parameters, which are called Euler angles.

So let be the rotation angle about the -axis, about the -axis and about the -axis. Then the Euler angles correspond to the following rotation matrix:
