◆ operator()() [1/4]

Comparison_result Kernel::CompareDihedralAngle_3::operator() ( const K::Point_3 &  a1,
const K::Point_3 &  b1,
const K::Point_3 &  c1,
const K::Point_3 &  d1,
const K::FT &  cosine 
)

compares the dihedral angles \( \theta_1\) and \( \theta_2\), where \( \theta_1\) is the dihedral angle, in \( [0, \pi]\), of the tetrahedron \( (a_1, b_1, c_1, d_1)\) at the edge (a_1, b_1), and \( \theta_2\) is the angle in \( [0, \pi]\) such that \( cos(\theta_2) = cosine\).

The result is the same as operator()(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.
