You did already the most complicated part, the computation of the radius. The rest is comparatively simple, also because I had a code for drawing cones on my hard drive anyway.

Of course, the sphere does not change its radius when altering the view angles, and the projection of a sphere on the screen is a circle of the radius of the sphere. So this circle won't change when we animate the view angles.
