How to subtract arc from sheet metal piece?

Newbie here - I've created a sheet metal piece and the last step I want to do is round some corners. I drew an arc that intersects with the two edges and I can select the piece I now want to remove, but neither delete nor trim work to get rid of it. You can see the section highlighted below that I want to remove. What am I missing?

Probably you want to use Extrude, Cut to remove the section. 

 

Please attach your model.  If you do not know how to attach your Fusion 360 model follow these easy steps. Open the model in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save as a F3D or F3Z file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section, of a forum post, to attach it.

Updated with file. Also, your suggestion to do a cut extrude worked great. 

 

Marking this as resolved.

As I mentioned in my first post, Extrude Cut will do the job for you.  Model attached.
