The lateral area is 1560 cm².

The lateral area is the area of the lateral faces (the faces that are not bases). The dimensions of these are:
24 by 26
10 by 26
26 by 26

These are all rectangles. The area of each rectangle is given by length * width:
24*26 = 624
10*26 = 260
26*26 =676

624+260+676=1560
