I always measure both sides and clamp a level in place and use it as a fence

Yep, doing it like that my whole adult life and I'm now 69 years old. Can't even imagine how many miles of wood was trimmed to length like that.

You can also cut angles up to 45 with a speed square. There are tons of YouTube videos showing how to line up the speed square. I like to use a small quick clamp to hold the angle

Typically people have issues with cutting long runs of ply wood straight 
.
But yes, for your issue, speed square is the answer. They also make them in many different sizes. For example I have 3. My largest is 12 or 14 inches. So cutting say even a 2x12 I can still and do use it as a fence/guide.
Again, as said, watch some Youtube videos on them. They allow for many more uses/angles other than just a simple 90* cut.
