Take into account that the surface area of a figure, is the area of the faces of the figure, excepting the top and the bottom.

Then, for the given figure, you have:

lateral surface area = (5 cm)(1 cm) + (5 cm)(1 cm) + (10 cm)(1 cm) + (10 cm)(1 cm)

= 30 cm²

Hence, the lateral surface area is 30 cm²
