How do I crate an edge between this vertices?

Hi guys! I'm pretty new to Maya since I used blender for a long time and I'm just wondering how do I create an edge between these vertices? I already googled a lot but it didn't help me at all. Mostly the answer was 'Append the Polygon Tool' but that didn't work for me in this case. I'd like to have an edge there because I want to create a face (I colored it red so you know where I want the face).



I hope somebody can help! Thanks in advance!

 

Never used Maya but I think you just simply add a face or polygon where the red part is. The edge will just be created for you.

 

Unfortunately not, lol. If it would be that easy I would have figured it out already.

 

it is pretty easy, use the create polygon tool, set snap to vertex and sew it up in a counter clock-wise direction to create the proper surface normal.
