Check through so many similar Q's here,,,and answers. On in particular is "Steve in NC" who turned me on to a TOOL so used.
Certainly with a TOOL to first determine the angles you can transfer them to a chop saw; then apply that to knowing that CROWN is basically a Multipl angel cut, and a FLIP; using even a Chop Saw.
There are literally HUNDREDS of sites more precise, using browser/ keyword search.

figure your angle then cut it in half and minus it from 90 what is left will be the angle that you cut on each piece. Example 140/2 =70 90-70=20
20 degrees is your cut.

Make a paper template of the angles and transfer that to the molding. A bevel square is useful to copy angles; hardware stores have them. A good saw is a must.

If you're using a miter saw, get a Bench Dog Crown cutting jig:
