Which tool is best suited for transferring a 35 degree angle from a drawing to a shop project?

  1. Try square.

  2. Sliding T-bevel.

  3. Framing square.

  4. Combination square.

The correct answer is: Sliding T-bevel.

A try square is best suited for measuring and marking right angles. A sliding T-bevel is used for transferring and setting angles. A framing square is designed for larger framing projects and may not be as precise as a sliding T-bevel. A combination square has a variety of functions, including measuring and marking angles, but a sliding T-bevel is specifically designed for transferring angles from one surface to another and would be the best tool for this task.
