Conic Curve sketch.

I want to draw a sketch similar to following image. But there is no conic curve tool present in 2D sketch, so please help me in creating this type of sketch....

Use the Equation Curve tool, or create a cone and project cut edges.  

 

The image you posted doesn't look like a conic arc; there's a radius dimension at the top and the sides look like lines.  But I could be mistaken, especially not knowing what software I'm looking at.

Hi,

 

I couldn't find a way to enter required conical curve defined by rho and tangency using equation. But depending on required precision you might be able to use the method to create approximate spline curve shown in screencast below.

Thanks Saso for reply, it seems to be a good method for demonstration purpose. I did not needed it for pure mathematic purpose. I will certainly try it and by watching video I think it will be easy. 

Thanks a lot 

Nisheeth.
