“It is emphatically the province and duty of the judicial department to say what the law is.” – Chief Justice John Marshal, Marbury v.

Let \(f\) be the transformation of \(\mathbb{R}^{2}\) given by rotating \(70^{\circ}\) counterclockwise around the origin. Find the standard matrix for \(f\) and then use that to find where the point \(\left(4,4\right)\) gets sent under this rotation. (As \(70^{\circ}\) is not a special angle, you will have to use decimal approximations.)
