Answer:

120 cm squared

Explanation:

1.the bases in this case are in blue,these are not included in lateral surface area.

first we must find the area of the top & bottom squares.

(4x4=16)

Then the side rectangles

(11x4=44)


then We add,there are two squares and two rectangles included in the lateral surface area.So we can do 16x2=32 and 44x2=88.

now that we have all our measurements we can add these numbers

88+32=120 cm squared
