The diagram you provided shows a 3D structure with labeled points \( A \), \( B \), \( C \), and \( D \), and two angles denoted as \( \theta \) and \( \phi \).

To find the two angles, we need to analyze the geometric relationships between these points using the dimensions given in the coordinate system.

### Step 1: Coordinate of Points

1. **Point A:** \( (x_A, y_A, z_A) = (0.6, 0, 0) \)
2. **Point B:** \( (x_B, y_B, z_B) = (0.2, 0.4, 0) \)
3. **Point C:** \( (x_C, y_C, z_C) = (0, 0.8, 0) \)
4. **Point D:** \( (x_D, y_D, z_D) = (0, 0.8, 0.5) \)

### Step 2: Finding Angle \( \theta \)
Angle \( \theta \) is between segments \( AB \) and \( BD \).

- Vector \( \mathbf{AB} = (x_B - x_A, y_B - y_A, z_B - z_A) = (0.2 - 0.6, 0.4 - 0, 0 - 0) = (-0.4, 0.4, 0) \)
- Vector \( \mathbf{BD} = (x_D - x_B, y_D - y_B, z_D - z_B) = (0 - 0.2, 0.8 - 0.4, 0.5 - 0) = (-0.2, 0.4, 0.5) \)

Now, use the dot product formula to find \( \theta \):

\[
\mathbf{AB} \cdot \mathbf{BD} = (-0.4)(-0.2) + (0.4)(0.4) + (0)(0.5) = 0.08 + 0.16 = 0.24
\]
\[
|\mathbf{AB}| = \sqrt{(-0.4)^2 + (0.4)^2 + (0)^2} = \sqrt{0.16 + 0.16} = \sqrt{0.32} = 0.566
\]
\[
|\mathbf{BD}| = \sqrt{(-0.2)^2 + (0.4)^2 + (0.5)^2} = \sqrt{0.04 + 0.16 + 0.25} = \sqrt{0.45} = 0.671
\]
\[
\cos \theta = \frac{\mathbf{AB} \cdot \mathbf{BD}}{|\mathbf{AB}| |\mathbf{BD}|} = \frac{0.24}{0.566 \times 0.671} = \frac{0.24}{0.380} \approx 0.632
\]
\[
\theta = \cos^{-1}(0.632) \approx 50.7^\circ
\]

### Step 3: Finding Angle \( \phi \)
Angle \( \phi \) is between segments \( AC \) and \( CD \).

- Vector \( \mathbf{AC} = (x_C - x_A, y_C - y_A, z_C - z_A) = (0 - 0.6, 0.8 - 0, 0 - 0) = (-0.6, 0.8, 0) \)
- Vector \( \mathbf{CD} = (x_D - x_C, y_D - y_C, z_D - z_C) = (0 - 0, 0.8 - 0.8, 0.5 - 0) = (0, 0, 0.5) \)

Now, use the dot product formula to find \( \phi \):

\[
\mathbf{AC} \cdot \mathbf{CD} = (-0.6)(0) + (0.8)(0) + (0)(0.5) = 0
\]
\[
|\mathbf{AC}| = \sqrt{(-0.6)^2 + (0.8)^2 + (0)^2} = \sqrt{0.36 + 0.64} = \sqrt{1} = 1
\]
\[
|\mathbf{CD}| = \sqrt{(0)^2 + (0)^2 + (0.5)^2} = 0.5
\]
\[
\cos \phi = \frac{\mathbf{AC} \cdot \mathbf{CD}}{|\mathbf{AC}| |\mathbf{CD}|} = \frac{0}{1 \times 0.5} = 0
\]
\[
\phi = \cos^{-1}(0) = 90^\circ
\]

### Final Answers:
- \( \theta \approx 50.7^\circ \)
- \( \phi = 90^\circ \)
