Hello all. I am trying to create a triangular shaped solid. However the sides are not all equal so I've been struggling to create planes and use other tools to create my part.
From the screenshot and model, you can see there are two right triangles on each end of the part I'm trying to make. The problem is that both triangles have different dimensions that creates a slight 'twist' on the hypotenuse part of the solid. Additionally the faces the triangles are pointing in different directions, making for a fairly complex part. Is there any solution to create this?

Here is your model. You also have some open sketch points and no dimensions so the size may be different when the sketch points are connected. Surfaces are your answer I believe.

From your file, (Not what I would do.)
Extrude the blue sketch, higher than the triangles.
Loft inclined lines in both triangles with Surface > Loft, to make a Split Body cutter.
Split the extruded body with the cutter body,
Remove the cutter body and excess solid.
Avoid 3d sketching, until you realise what they are for.
Using the origin - is a great idea.
