Cutting and joining wood at an angle for inexperienced woodworker

I want to make a corner "cabinet" (no doors..basically a platform) out of 2"x10" wood with the wood going vertically. I won't go into why I am using 2"x10"s vs. building a real frame and applying wood.

I attached a sketch when looking from the top of the "frame" (the whole thing is really solid vertical 2x10s).

My question is, how do I figure out the angle, cut and attach the lower right corner?

I have a table saw (that can do angles) and compound mitre saw and little woodworking experience. I want to keep it as simple as possible (no biscuits, dovetails, pocket joints).

I assume I need to calculate the angle and set my table saw. I am not sure if I can screw those pieces together themselves or need another interior angled piece of wood to join the corners.

Neatness/strength are not extremely critical to this project.Name:  16220.jpg
