(a) Dee-Odd makes cocktail glasses out of thin glass.
One of their cocktail glasses is shown below.
A hollow hemisphere forms the part of the glass which can hold the drink.
Cocktail glass with a hemispherical bowl on a thin stem and a circular foot

Diagram not drawn to scale

Before each hemisphere is attached to a stem, the surface area on the outside of each hemisphere is given a decorative coating.

The volume of each hemisphere is \(\dfrac{128\pi}{3}\) cm3.

Calculate the surface area that is given a decorative coating.
Give your answer in terms of π in its simplest form. [6]

(b) Dee-Odd also makes another style of cocktail glass in two different sizes.
These glasses are mathematically similar.
Two similar cocktail glasses with cone-shaped bowls, one smaller than the other

Diagram not drawn to scale

The ratio of the volume of the smaller glass to the volume of the larger glass is 8 : 27.
The height of the larger glass is 18 cm.
Calculate the height of the smaller glass. [3]

From the formula list: Volume of sphere \(= \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\);   Surface area of sphere \(= 4\pi r^2\)
