sweep on multiple planes

I've started a sketch on the front plane, and I'm curious if there's a way to connect its last point to more lines that are parallel to the right plane. Is there a way to do this and sweep it all?

In your use case, you might also want to check out the Ortho Lines FeatureScript by Ilya Baran:

For the Ortho Lines Document, you can add the Ortho Lines FeatureScript by clicking the "Custom features" button at the top left and clicking on "Ortho lines." There is a PDF tab at the bottom showing how to use it and a Part Studio with some examples.
As for attaching the sketches, I did a screen recording to demonstrate:

The video was SO SO helpful.

I forgot to mention I'm using android. Also I watched the video a bunch of times and I can only get as far as an error message on the mate connector saying cannot resolve entities and no entities selected
