Follow-up Question

I dont know what I am doing wrong, i did it again and moved the protractor. i got the angles 85, 82, 78 84, 80 and 76 for shoe number 1, for shoe number 2 i got 82, 86, 85, 88, 84 and 83. average for shoe 1 comes to 80.83 and for shoe 2 comes to 84.67. i attached a picture of my ramp made of cardboard. the professor said if we get over 4.0 is way off and wrong, so i am definitly way off what am i doing wrong while taking these angles? the shoes are a croc clog and a mocassin slipper, i am slowly raising the cardboard ramp until they begin to slide and when that happens i take the angle on which it happened by looking at the protractor which is held standing behind the cardboard.
