Stuck on a 2D drawing

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello everyone. I started modelling a speed hull a month ago. And recently I completed the hull model with the help of a friend. Now I am stuck in fusion 2D Drawing environment, I am having a hard time to give angular dimension for transverse and deadrise angle. 
I have attached the file here, please review it and suggest me how can I dead with angular dimensioning.
Thank you.

You can turn on sketches in your design and have them show up in your drawings.  then you are able to diminsion to them. The catch is that only the slid lines will show up in sketches, and they show up as phantom lines. (long dash, short dash, short dash...) construction lines don't show up.  i don't know why AD thought this would be a good way to implement this functionality, it drives me crazy.

Hi,

1. You can only dimension angles of lines that are on the same plane.
2. You may need to define a plane in Design mode onto which the object is projected, then activate the sketches in Drawing mode to dimension the projected angles.

Not an accurate statement for drawings.  You can dimension any 2 lines/edges visible in a view port when in drawings.  the angle returned will be a result of flatting the model normal to the view direction (the edges of the solid and line in the pic I posted aren't on the same plane in the model for instance.)
