Hi I’m struggling on how to create the following wall:

The wall is at right angle to the floor but is slanted such that its thickness as viewed from the front at the floor is 47 cm, and at the top is only 38 cm.

The walls thickness also varies along its width, in that it starts at 47 cm wide but at its rear its 51.3 cm. Effectively creating a tapered look. The width of the wall is 227 cm.

The height of the wall is 289.2 cm.

I’ve sketched and extruded the dimensions but somehow the wall’s surface is not flat.

Is there a way to create this geometric shape?

I really appreciate your help very much.

Hello Alex,

Thank you very much for your reply.  
That is it. But how do I extrude so that the slanted side stays flat?
