    Step-by-step explanation:

    Base area of a square pyramid is given by

    B=a*a=a²

    Where a is the length of each side of the base

    Volume of a square pyramind is given by

    V=⅓Bh

    Where h is the height

    Given that height is 1.5a then B is a²

    V=⅓*a²*1.5a=0.5a³

    Given that the volume is 4500 in³

    0.5a³=4500

    a³=9000

    a=3√9000=30

    Since height is 1.5a then h=1.5*30=45 in
