This seems like it should be pretty simple, but I just don't do enough of this type of work to know how to perform this efficiently. The line along the outside of this polygon (where I drew the red line) is apportioned in to 50 ft. segments. I'd like to create polygons that line up along that line for a subdivision. I was hoping to draw a parallel line to create the right side of the polygon and make the polygons each 8800 sq. ft. in area. Does anyone have a process to get this done pretty efficiently?

Thanks for your help in advance.

This was my mistake, I forgot to tell you that you need to use the Rectangle tool for the polygon to get the right click Direction/Size tool.

@DanPatterson Thanks I found that. Unfortunately, I can't figure out a method to get it to work the way I kind of need it too. I have a feeling it's because I'm under some pressure for this right now and part of my creative brain shut down 😔

Here is another idea, when creating the polygon you can use the Right click option Direction/Size:

I don't have that Direction/Size option. I only have a Direction/Distance option. I'm using Pro v 2.9.

While that's not 100% exactly what I need I think that solution helps out enough where I can use it with a combination of manual drawing to get to a final solution. Thank you.
