How to make skew guides in Inkscape?

Actually the problem is that it is very difficult for me to make lines parallel if they are not perpendicular to the axes of the X and Y guides, I would like to add auxiliary guides that would have an angle, because. It is expensive to draw auxiliary contours, and their slope is not clear. Thank you!

The guide can be rotated by holding Shift. But in order to find out the angle, you must first rotate the guide, release it, move the cursor over it again and read the information about the guide at the very bottom of the window.
And as I understand it, you need the n-th number of parallel guides and setting them with your hands is not an option.
Therefore - Inkscape can build guides around the object (Shift + G). Those. draw a square, rotate it to the desired angle, press Shift + G. If you need a bunch of guides, then draw a bunch of cubes, select them and create guides.
