Explanation:

the surface consists of 6 squares. but for the lateral surface area we ignore top and bottom (you can imagine we only calculate the walls of a room). that leaves 4 squares.

each square has the same side length of 1.8 cm.

so, the area of one square is 1.8² = 3.24 cm²

and the total lateral surface area of the 4 squares is

3.24×4 = 12.96 cm²
