Similarly, other stars may rise in the south-east, and set in the south-west, etc.

Do the sun moon and stars appear to rise in the east and set in the west because of the rotation of the moon?

The sun, moon, and stars all appear to rise in the east and set in the west due to the Earth's rotation on its axis. This rotation causes all celestial bodies to appear to move across the sky from east to west. The moon's own orbit around the Earth affects its position, but it does not directly impact the sun and stars.
