First make a regular rectangle and put your content in there. Then, use a ::before or ::after Pseudo element and position it absolute to where you want it. Might have to go into the minus with this. Then use a transform property to make it look like a triangle or similar. In this case, they use the transform property skew.

I recreated it in a very simple pen, here:

Take a look.
