ok so im definitely new when it comes to making things in 3d but i have this drawing that im trying to extrude at an angle but i cant for the life of me figure this out. if you are able to do it, could you walk me through on how you did this? any help would be greatly appreciated.


I'll assume that the upper part of the drawing is a plan view, and the lower part an elevation, and that the trick is getting the notches/serrations to run diagonally through the resulting Solid, since ordinary Extrude won't do that for you.  The drawing doesn't "tell the whole story" about what should happen at the ends, so you would need to play around with some additional Extrude and/or Union and/or Subtract and so on in those areas.  But for the diagonal-notches stretch through the middle, try this:

Make a Polyline of the elevation-view outline.  [There's a duplicated Line that makes PEDIT/Joining a problem, but BOUNDARY works.]  Copy that at a displacement of 0,0,2 [2 units up in the Z direction to make the plan-view thickness].  Move the upper copy to the left by the delta-X value of one of the diagonal Lines in the plan view.  [You can draw a Line from the upper end of one of them, perpendicular to the bottom edge Line, and from there over to the lower end of the diagonal, and use the Endpoints of that short horizontal Line for the Copy displacement.]  LOFT between the two Polylines to make a 3D Solid that has those diagonal notches.

 

You can play with the UCS and Rotate and Move it to align with the plan view.
