Answer:

13 cm

Explanation:

slant height =
\sqrt{12^2 +(10^2)/(4) }

=
\sqrt{144 + (100)/(4) }

=
√(144 + 25)

=
√(169)

=13 cm

a=10 cm

l =

surface area =
a^(2) + 2a \sqrt{(a^(2) )/(4) +h^(2) }

=
10^(2) +2*10 \sqrt{(10^(2) )/(4) +12^(2) } \\100 + 20 \sqrt{(100)/(4) + 144} \\100 + 20√(25 + 144) \\100 + 20 √(169) \\100 + 20*13\\100 + 260\\360 cm^2
