# Angle Between

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page documents the **Angle Between node** of the Scene Nodes system in **Cinema 4D**. It measures the angle between two direction vectors in degrees or radians — fundamental for alignment checks and angle-driven logic.

Direction vectors play a decisive role for raytracing. By calculating the angle between vectors, effects can, for example, be made dependent on the angle of view.

This Node calculates the angle between two direction vectors and can output this as a degree or radian angle.
