It's a 3-4-5 Pythagorean triangle, so the angle is 36.87 or its complement
of 53.13 degrees, plus a multiple of 90 degrees.
However, in a case like this it is often easier to first connect one point, then
hinge around that point and find the proper angle by trial and error. If you
look at the model from the top, you can see rather well whether the second hinge
is coming close to the ideal location. You can always hide all parts not needed
for the hinge operation so you have a clear view.

When I run into a "just won't fit" problem, it sometimes helps to
go over everything to make sure I didn't make a building mistake up to that
point and that every piece is fully seated.
