Surface area and volume — practice question

A cone is placed on top of a hemisphere to make a solid. The cone and the hemisphere each have radius $r$ cm. The total height of the solid is $10$ cm. The curved surface area of the hemisphere is $145\text{ cm}^2$.
(a(i))[3]

Show that $r = 4.80$, accurate to $2$ decimal places.

(a(ii))[4]

Calculate the volume occupied by the solid.

(a(iii))[4]

Calculate the cone's curved surface area.

(b)[4]

Sector $A$ has angle $x$ and radius $y$. Sector $B$ has an angle $20\%$ smaller than $x$ and a radius $20\%$ longer than $y$. Calculate the area of sector $B$ as a percentage of the area of sector $A$.
