I assume 60 is the circumference of the circle.
if you sketch the graph, you will see that the radius from the center to the base, half the base, and the line segment form the center to one of the bottom vertex form a 30-60-90 degree triangle, the shortest leg is the radius of the circle, r.
the longer leg is √3r, and the hypotenuse is 2r.
the base of the triangle is 2√3r. 
find r: 2πr=60, r=60/2π
2√3r=2√3*60/(2π)=60√3/π=33

valentinak56 [21]
Check the picture below.

if you go from the slant height, the path is shorter to the top, since the hypotenuse is the longest of all sides in a right-triangle.

that said, is shorter but is also steeper, so the lateral edge is longer but less steep and thus a bit simpler though longer, but we're only asked on which is shorter.

nignag [31]

sin(x) = opp/hyp
cos(x) = adj/hyp
tan(x) = opp/adj

sin(x) = 3.9/8.1
sin(x) = 0.481

Inverse sin of 0.481 = 28.8 degrees

Each answer should be between 0 and 90 :)
