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 \( \theta_1\) 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 `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.

compares the dihedral angles \( \theta_1\) and \( \theta_2\), where \( \theta_i\) is the dihedral angle in the tetrahedron `(a_i, b_i, c_i, d_i)`at the edge `(a_i, b_i)`.

Precondition
  For \( i \in\{1,2\}\), `a_i`, `b_i`, `c_i` are not collinear, and `a_i`, `b_i`, `d_i` are not collinear.
