Find a parametric representation for the part of the part of the sphere

. . .x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 4

that lies above the cone

. . .z = (x^2 + y^2)^(1/2)

The representation for the sphere is

. . .0 < rho < 2
. . .0 < theta < 2pi
. . .0 < phi < 2pi

But I don't know what to do with the part that lies above the cone.
