To find the measurements for the shape, we need to calculate the lateral surface area, total surface area, and volume.

1. Lateral Surface Area:
To find the lateral surface area of a triangular prism, we need to calculate the lateral area of the triangle and the area of the rectangular sides.

Area of the triangle = (1/2) * base * height
Area of triangle = (1/2) * 10 cm * 10 cm = 50 cm²

Area of the rectangle = length * height
Area of rectangle = 25 cm * 10 cm = 250 cm²

Lateral Surface Area = Area of triangle + 2 * Area of rectangle
Lateral Surface Area = 50 cm² + 2 * 250 cm² = 550 cm²

2. Total Surface Area:
To find the total surface area of a triangular prism, we need to calculate the sum of the lateral surface area and the area of the two triangular bases.

Total Surface Area = Lateral Surface Area + 2 * Area of triangle
Total Surface Area = 550 cm² + 2 * 50 cm² = 650 cm²

3. Volume:
To find the volume of a triangular prism, we need to calculate the area of the triangular base and then multiply by the height.

Volume = Area of triangle base * height
Volume = 50 cm² * 10 cm = 500 cm³

Therefore, the measurements for the given triangular prism are:
Lateral Surface Area = 550 cm²
Total Surface Area = 650 cm²
Volume = 500 cm³
