No, just showing how tall of each part before I sliced the middle part.

I’m assuming you’re talking about getting a 3d view. If you’ve drawn the object in 3d then use the View command to set current one of the predefined isometric views

It may be that the purpose of the exercise is to complete everything in 2D instead of 3D - yes, I understand AutoCAD makes it easy to generate a solution and manipulate views in 3D but the PNG file provided indicates a 2D isometric grid to the right of the three 2D views.

Being able to visualize and sketch a 2D representation is a valuable skill - especially when in the field where may not have access to CAD programs (or if the power fails).

A 2D field isometric sketch also requires planning of the layout.
