Solution

 90°

Let \[m_1 \text { and } m_2\] be the slope of the lines 2x − y + 3 = 0 and x + 2y + 3 = 0, respectively.
Let \[\theta\] be the angle between them.

Here, 

\[m_1 = 2 \text { and } m_2 = - \frac{1}{2}\]

\[\because m_1 m_2 = - 1\]

Therefore, the angle between the given lines is 90°.
