Jingyuan is designing a bucket hat for BMT merchandise. The hat has the shape of a cylinder on top of a truncated cone, as shown in the diagram below. The cylinder has radius $9$ and height $12$. The truncated cone has base radius $15$ and height $4$, and its top radius is the same as the cylinder’s radius. Compute the total volume of this bucket hat.

One tiles a floor of $a \times b$ dm$^2$ with square tiles, $a,b \in N$. Tiles do not overlap, and sides of floor and tiles are parallel. Using tiles of $2\times 2$ dm$^2$ leaves the same amount of floor uncovered as using tiles of $4\times 4$ dm$^2$. Using $3\times 3$ dm$^2$ tiles leaves $29$ dm$^2$ floor uncovered. Determine $a$ and $b$.
