template<typename Kernel >
Comparison_result CGAL::compare_dihedral_angle ( const CGAL::Point_3< Kernel > &  a1,
const CGAL::Point_3< Kernel > &  b1,
const CGAL::Point_3< Kernel > &  c1,
const CGAL::Point_3< Kernel > &  d1,
const Kernel::FT cosine 
)

compares the dihedral angles θ1 and θ2, where θ1 is the dihedral angle, in [0,π], of the tetrahedron (a_1, b_1, c_1, d_1)at the edge (a_1, b_1), and θ2 is the angle in [0,π] such that cos(θ2)=cosine.

The result is the same as compare_dihedral_angle(b1-a1, c1-a1, d1-a1, cosine).

Precondition
a_1, b_1, c_1 are not collinear, and a_1, b_1, d_1 are not collinear.

#include <CGAL/global_functions.h>

const CGAL::Point_3< Kernel > &  b2,
const CGAL::Point_3< Kernel > &  c2,

)

compares the dihedral angles θ1 and θ2, where θi is the dihedral angle in the tetrahedron (a_i, b_i, c_i, d_i)at the edge (a_i, b_i).

These two angles are computed in [0,π]. The result is the same as compare_dihedral_angle(b1-a1, c1-a1, d1-a1, b2-a2, c2-a2, d2-a2).

Precondition
For i{1,2}, a_i, b_i, c_i are not collinear, and a_i, b_i, d_i are not collinear.

)

compares the dihedral angles θ1 and θ2, where θ1 is the dihedral angle, in [0,π], between the vectorial planes defined by (u_1, v_1) and (u_1, w_1), and θ2 is the angle in [0,π] such that cos(θ2)=cosine.
