Circular saws have a bevel adjustment.

You also need clamps and a drill. Take your time because rushing WILL lead to accidents.

To set the angle on your saw accurately, get a cheapie protractor like this one.

In regards to a BFM cab... I never have trusted the angle mark on the table saw and since, it would seem that acuro plywood is not the perfect medium, I line up my panel and them mark, with a straight edge, what angle cut should be made. Then i place that piece on the saw and eye ball the angle. All my angle cuts have been very close!
