Answer:

The lateral surface area is: 1860 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The missing dimension are:

See attachment for storage

[tex]L = 20[/tex] --- Length

[tex]W = 42[/tex] --- Width

[tex]H = 15[/tex] --- Height

Required

The lateral surface area

The lateral area is calculated as:

[tex]Area = 2 * H * (L + W)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Area = 2 * 15 * (20 + 42)[/tex]

[tex]Area = 30 * (20 + 42)[/tex]

[tex]Area = 30 * 62[/tex]

[tex]Area = 1860[/tex]
