Circle, Height, Vertex Half-angle Example 1

Creating a cone by defining an existing circle as its base, defining a height (1), and an angle equal to half of the enclosed vertex angle. A positional modifier (ZLARGE) is used to define the direction of the vertex from the plane containing the circle.
