Cone( <Circle>, <Height> ): Creates a cone with given base and height.
Cone( <Point>, <Point>, <Radius> ): Creates a cone with vertex (second point), circle center (first point) and given radius.
Cone( <Point>, <Vector>, <Angle α> ): Creates an infinite cone with given point as vertex, axis of symmetry parallel to the given vector and apex angle 2α.; Note: This command yields undefined if angle ≥ \frac{\pi}{2}.

Note: See also InfiniteCone command, the

Cone tool and the

Extrude to Pyramid or Cone tool, that operates by dragging or selecting a circle and entering altitude to create a right circular cone.
