There is an point at [xp,yp,zp].
Its origin at [xc,yc,zc].
I need angles of line from [xc,yc,zc] to [xp,yp,zp] with respect to axes of origin as shown below.

I think I posted it as a comment before instead of as an answer u.u'
gamma = atan(sqrt(((xp-xc)^2+(yp-yc)^2)/(zp-zc));
alpha = atan(sqrt(((zp-zc)^2+(yp-yc)^2)/(xp-xc));
beta = atan(sqrt(((xp-xc)^2+(zp-zc)^2)/(yp-yc));
Results in radians ofc.
Hope this is what you asked.

Just to clarify (please correct me if I'm wrong), these equations show the angles of the black arrow to each respective axis as they appear in 3D, and NOT as a projction to each plane.
