Lateral surface area of the given prism is equals to [tex]250cm^{2}[/tex].
What is lateral surface area?
" Lateral surface area is defined as the sum of area of the all the surfaces except top and bottom of the given geometrical shape."
Formula used
Lateral surface area of pentagonal prism [tex]=5ah[/tex]
[tex]a=[/tex] edge length of the base
[tex]h=[/tex] height of the prism
According to the question,
For the given pentagonal prism,
Edge length of the base [tex]'a' = 5cm[/tex]
Height of the prism [tex]'h' = 10cm[/tex]
Substitute the value in the formula of lateral surface area we get,
Lateral surface area of pentagonal prism [tex]= 5 \times 5\times 10[/tex]
[tex]= 250cm^{2}[/tex]
Hence, lateral surface area of the given prism is equals to [tex]250cm^{2}[/tex].
