I think 10\* is prefered, it looks like you were able to do a 90\* in 4 cuts, should take you 9 cuts. Some simple math should let you know how much to cut on the small and large side… ---

i’m just sayin. as i said, make the short side longer (less angle). You want about a 3-4" inside bend radius. Try sucking at it less. ---
