Here's how I would do it.

The correct name for the compound is trans-1-chloro-3-isopropylcyclohexane.

Draw a structure for cyclohexane.

1

Put a wedge and a dash on each of $"C1"$ and $"C3"$ .

2

The two groups are trans to each other. Put the chlorine atom on a wedge at $"C1"$ and the isopropyl group on a dash at $"C3"$ .

3

Put $"H"$ atoms on the remaining wedge and dash.

4

Now you have a perspective formula for trans-1-chloro-3-isopropylcyclohexane.
