I responded to your other post. I forget what the exact geometric term is but 105 is the "opposite" of 75 if you measure a straight (180*) piece from the opposite side. See what I'm saying?

Everyone's right about this, go back and look at the angle gauge again. There's two rows of numbers on it the top row calls it a 75* and the bottom row calls it a 105*.
