Have you had any luck with the CAD yet? It's great when you want to determine an angle, and only have the side dimensions to go by. Just draw it and snap the angle, and you'll get an accurate number without having to do the trigonometry. I have made some templates by printing them and transfering to cardboard or acetate, it works well if you're lazy like me.
