The lateral area is the stuff you see horizontally, back of it horizontally, sides horizontally. Things like that. It is NOT the top and bottom. So you have three lateral sides there. Find their areas and add them up! (Advanced tip: Unwrap it, add together the lengths, multiply by the height. It also works.)
