A designer proposed using a paraboloid S,: x² +y² = z as the basis of a container design. However, after some discussion, the designer was advised to revert to a matching cone-based design S2 with certain apex angle a, which was said to be able to achieve material cost saving due to less surface area. Figure 1 gives a visual comparison of the two surfaces.

A designer proposed using a paraboloid S: x² + y? = z as the basis of a container design.
However, after some discussion, the designer was advised to revert to a matching cone-based
design S, with certain apex angle a, which was said to be able to achieve material cost saving
due to less surface area. Figure 1 gives a visual comparison of the two surfaces.

With your knowledge in surface integral**, determine the surface area of the cone (S2) and
the surface area of the paraboloid (S,), and find out the surface area saving. Be sure to refer
Table 1 for the value of the apex angle a.

**Note: it is recommended to use suitable parameterization for ease of evaluating the two surface integrals: e.g.
a possible approach is to view the cone as a circular revolution of a slanted line around the central-axis, so that
for every elevation value z, the x and y are related by the basic circular equation x² + y² = (radius)² (see
Figure 1). This revolution approach is applicable to the paraboloid as well.
