I have a cartesian point that I am being given (blue line), and I need to convert it to a point relative to a rotated plane (green box). The plane is rotated at 28.227º as shown below.
Sadly, my lack of math education has me completely baffled as to how to solve this. I need to be able to take any x,y point and convert it for the rotated plane.
Any help at all on this would be greatly appreciated as I am at a total loss.
Best I can figure out, I will need several different calculations depending on where the input point is.

I love friends who know math. Thanks KJ! Here is the answer.
function convertPoint(x,y){
var degree = -28.227;
var offset = 0; //change if your corner is not 0,0
x2 = x *Math.cos(radians(degree)) + (y - offset) *Math.sin(radians(degree));
y2 = x *Math.sin(radians(degree)) - (y - offset) *Math.cos(radians(degree));
return {x: x2, y: y2}
}
function radians(degrees){
return degrees * (Math.PI / 180);
}
