Find the surface area of the portion of the cone that is inside the cylinder

Find the surface area of the portion of the cone $z^2=x^2+y^2$ that is inside the cylinder $z^2=2y$.

I have seen this solution before but what bugs me is that why are we calling $z^2=2y$ as a cylinder? I tried drawing the figures on geogebra $3D$ calculator but it doesn't help me.
