Finding the angle needed to look at something?

I need some way to find the rotation of an object so it looks at another object. I have the X and Y (and Z because it's 3D) of both objects and I need to have one look at the other. The reason im not using the built in block is because the way I have to turn it uses a custom block with slots for the X rotation and the Y rotation (and the Z rotation) so I need all the angles to be independent calculations. I don't know if any of that made any sense. Any help with my very specific problem would be greatly appreciated.

If it's in 3D you're going to have to find the spherical coordinates.

IDK how to do 3d, but I made a demo of 2d here: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/612576035/
