Calculate angles between mate connector and global coordinate system

I would like to measure the angles between all axes of a mate connector (or a local coordinate system) and the global coordinate system. It's a total of nine angles. I need that to calculate a transformation matrix to figure out how to apply forces in different coordinate systems. Previously, I would create lines in "Sketch" that coincide with all 6 axes and would measure the angles manually. This is very time consuming and tedious task. Especially, having to create sketch for every line.
Also, is it possible to defined vectors in Onshape?
