While we could use 'Rectangle by Two Corners' to accomplish this - I am introducing the 'Rectangle by Three Corners', for practice, which will be used more effectively in later tutorials.

Click on the Right End (Shown as dark, but visible) of the Extrusion.

Select 'Activate 2D Sketch' from Sketch in the main menu (Shortcut=Ctrl+K).

Click the Rectangle options selector, Click 'Rectangle by Three Corners' icon from the fly-out menu.

Now - Click the first point at a cursor location of -.50, 4.50, (See the Status line - at the lower right)

The second point at a cursor location of .50, 4.50; and the third point at a cursor location of .5 , .00.
