How to calculate the length of the pipe connecting to the opening at the top of a right circular cone?

Judging from the ratio, it should be half of 1150
Brother: You have already marked the longest dimension as 1150. Entity expansion can be done manually in 2D or automatically through 3D lofting.
I mean, how do you calculate the length of this red one?
The horizontal cross-section of that cone is a circle; 1400 minus the radius gives you the desired dimension. If drawn proportionally, it can be measured directly.

Generally, the elongation of the splice will exceed the effective length of the reinforcement, so it need not be taken into consideration during calculation. If it’s too short, use a conservative approach by calculating based on the shorter side; if accuracy is desired, use lofting – there’s no point in making the calculations that complicated. The opening diameter is always based on the major axis, using a conservative calculation method.
