Follow the method your local mosque uses. The "angle" is how far the sun is below the horizon when the prayer time begins.

Asr: Standard vs Hanafi school

The majority (Shafi'i, Maliki, Hanbali) compute Asr when an object's shadow equals its own length; the Hanafi school waits until the shadow is twice the object's length. For Istanbul today:

Standard (Shafi/Maliki/Hanbali) 16:56
Hanafi 18:04 default

You can change the school at the top of the page. The default follows the school most common in the country.
