Constructing a circle at a certain diameter on a cone

The print that I am working from calls for the distance between two diameters (circles) that are on two separate cone features. I know how to construct a circle on a cone at a known distance, but how do I construct a circle at a certain diameter on a cone?

  • maybe create a line through the center of the features. Then construct lines (for the 4" diameter, two inches from that line. then construct intersect points where the cone and the line intersect.
    Do the same for each diameter. measure the distance between the constructed points
