is this what you want ?

inputs:
a 2d pivot point
a 2d reference point
a rotation slider

output:
a 2d point rotating the reference around the pivot

an expression for the destination point would be (pseudo-code):

output.x = pivot.x + (reference.x - pivot.x) * cos( rotation ) -
(reference.y - pivot.y) * sin( rotation )
output.y = pivot.y + (reference.x - pivot.x) * sin( rotation ) +
(reference.y - pivot.y) * cos( rotation )
