Default bending angled pieces

I am starting to do a 5 sided light. I know all the inside angles are 72 deg. each vertical piece will we bent to this angle to form the corners then swaged out to meat the bottom frame (i want the inside of the verticals flush with the bottom frame.

my question is how do i bend the curl at the bottom across the 72deg angle and still keep the angle (think curling angle iron along the corner)
