The spec sheet's Sd of 177 in² is the area of a 15″ circle, not the cone's radiating area — not used.

Cone area (Sd) calculated from Fs, Vas and Mms: 135.5 in².

“≈” means the value isn’t in the spec sheet and a typical value for the size is used; “calc.” means it’s calculated from the published parameters. Check the manufacturer’s spec sheet before you build.
