Answer:
Part A) The height of the base is 15 cm
Part B) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A) What is the height of the base?
we know that
The volume of the triangular prism is equal to

where
B is the area of the triangular face
L is the length of the prism
we have

substitute the given values

solve for B

Find the height of the base
we know that
The area of triangle i equal to

solve for h

Part B) What is the approximate amount of cardboard used to make the candy box?
we know that
To find out the the approximate amount of cardboard used to make the candy box, determine the surface area of the triangular prism
The surface area is equal to

where
B is the area of the triangular base
P is the perimeter of the triangular base
L is the length
we have

Find the perimeter of triangle P

substitute

30°
Here's why:
Using the well-known Pythagorian theorem we can reckon how long the hypotenuse is:
c^2=6^2+36*3 -> c=12
Knowing that sin(a)=a/c=6/12=0.5 the measure of the angle in degrees is 30°
Hope could help :)
This sequence is not a geometric.
It is because, common ratio = 6/3 = 2
9/6 = 1.5
As the ratio's are not same, it is not a G.P
Hope this helps!
I think this is how u ans it , haha.
Not sure if its comp right but im sure u can get method marks T-T
