Or alternate way to generate the tangent arc is make a triangle for the full cone profile:



Select it and run Construct > Fillet, pick just the top point to be filleted and put in radius = 28.575/2 and you'll get this you can send this directly into revolve with an axis line down the middle, it will cut it in half for you:
