I have a 3d object and I know all of the dimensions. I can use these dimensions to create a coordinate for each corner of the face, but I can't quite figure out how to get the last point to connect to the next, and so on. I tried using fill3 and surf, both of which failed miserably. I couldn't even get a 2d version to work for the face. Attached is a picture of the object that I am trying to plot along with what I believe the coordinates for each point are in terms of variables. I gave some random example values for each variable, because I plan on implementing it using variables that way I can change their values and get a different sized shape.
It would be beneficial if the entire thing was centered, though I feel that would make it quite a bit more complicated, so it's not absolutely necessary. If you could make it clear where each dimension comes into play so that I can learn how to do this for similar objects, that would also be great.
