Sometimes just measure and mark on the ends, sometimes clamp something behind the corner for quicker repeatability.

You can also tack a thin piece of scrap "on the line" to help support that workpiece using a fixture like that. I use a 23 gage pinner and scrap .25" material for that.

Well, if you add a 1/8" shim, or whatever the kerf width is, that should work. Or you could rough out the copies and use a flush trim bit with the original as a pattern.

No need for a shim. All you need to do is slide the off-cut down until the faces meet and you get the proper angle.
