(Important) The angle of your first piece is the length of the short side of your next piece, because they will mate together, make sure you have the tongue & groove lined up correctly, male to female etc., HINT..... try it with paper first until you get the idea. (its very satisfying to do it yourself, an when your done you will say, Gee that wasn't so hard) Good-Luck!
