I know the matrix form for X-gate, Y-gate and Z-gate. But what is the matrix form for all the rotation gates? For example, in qiskit, which matrix does qc.rx(0) refer to?

Please check the link below for Qiskit convention:

qiskit.org/documentation/stubs/qiskit.circuit.library.RYGate.html
qiskit.org/documentation/stubs/qiskit.circuit.library.RZGate.htmlThey are also listed on Wikipedia:
