Answer:

Surface area = 90 cm²

Explanation:

Given net of the rectangular prism shows the dimensions as,

Length = 5 cm

Width = 5 cm

Height = 2 cm

`Expression for the surface area of a rectangular prism = 2(lb + bh + hl)

Here, l = length

w = width

h = height

By substituting the values in the expression,

Surface area = 2(5×2 + 5×2 + 5×5)

= 2(10 + 10 + 25)

= 90 cm²
