Answer:

1,511 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

      We will find the surface area, but not include the top.

      This means we will have five sides to calculate for, see attached.     Please note that the area of a rectangle can be found with A = L * W

[1] 19 cm * 10 cm = 190 cm²

[2] 19 cm * 10 cm = 190 cm²

[3] 29 cm * 10 cm = 290 cm²

[4] 29 cm * 10 cm = 290 cm²

[5] 19 cm * 29 cm = 551 cm²

    Add them all together:

190 cm² + 190 cm² + 290 cm² + 290 cm² + 551 cm² = 1,511 cm²
