We will work through each step from top down to obtain the solution to our problem.

In the Project Schematic of Workbench window, right click on Geometry and select Properties. You will see the properties menu on the right of the Workbench window. Under Advance Geometry Options, change the Analysis Type to 2D.

...

In the Project Schematic, double left click on Geometry to start preparing the geometry. After you launch the web tutorials and FLUENT, you will have to drag the browser window to the width of the largest image (about 350 pixels). To make best use of screen real estate, move the windows around and resize them so that you approximate

 In the Sketching toolboxes, select Rectangle. In the Graphics window, create a rough Rectangle from starting from the origin in the positive XY direction (Make sure that you see a letter P at the origin before you start dragging the rectangle. The letter P at the origin means the geometry is constrained at the origin.)

You should have something like this:
