If you cut the cone in half then drop a line from the point down to the centre of the base, you can then find the radius, which is the the base of one of the triangles you now have. You need to know one of the angles though, then work out the radius through trigonometry.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
