I know the solution to the problem. But I must know the reason to the problem.
Why these two faces are refusing to mate?
Mate constraint

I made many models to check my opinion and I was found it was not true.
Mate/Flush faces must perpendicular to adjacent faces I fond condition was not true.
Whaaat???!!! Of course is true!!!... the faces must be parallel, 0 deg between them...

It has shown adjacent faces are perpendicular to Mate/Flush faces. Simple trail model is attached.
what's your question now!!
It's just a picture!!!!!!!! it's the "contact" faces the one's who matters... only the 2 faces you pick count for the constraint.... all the others doesnt enter in all this!!!!

Yes, can be relevant... because the level of knowledge and experience. Btw... i'm 40 something, there's no problem to say it.
And... YES and No, if we are sure the answer is correct, sure we can and must... if you make a question about something you dont know, how are you to evaluate if the answer is rigth or wrong?... This is a forum to help everybody, not just you.

Basic... different angles

Confusing
Hi fiatnm,
This can be confusing when angles are just slightly different and appear the same, because Inventor requires things to be perfect. In the real world your parts might fit just fine, but they might not Mate perfectly in Inventor.
In these cases there are generally 2 options:
1) edit the part and make the angles match by dimensioning something differently, etc.
2) use a different assembly constraint solution.
For option 2, in this case here are 2 suggestions:
- You could Mate workplanes
- or Mate an edge and a face, which would result in the slide being just slightly off center.
Attached is an example of both.
I hope this helps.
Best of luck to you in all of your Inventor pursuits,
Curtis

But the answer is correct and answers your question, so... is accepted like correct...
It's a choice, no demand, if you are not satisfied, if you not agree with this forum rules, you can go to other forum... or to have a inventor course instead.
This is a forum for professional people, that pays a lot for softwrae, to expose their problems, their questions, real world questions, this is not a inventor course, nevertheless, all the people are welcome...
so, if it was confusing... another try... to teach the student:
What you can do:
Fix the angles to have parallel faces, or, use central planes between the two parts to center both.

If angles are different what is the matters?
What??!!!!! mate needs two parallel faces it's a BASIC concept... if the angle is different, whats is the matters? you must be joking!!
Conflict with Mate1
It is this word carries the correct message.
In order to a solution should be understood wording has to be more precise.
Read the statements,more precise is impossible...
(In this case,sometimes is not so clear, but with some experience and brains, everybody can nderstand all of errors messages)
