In the case of a circle of unit diameter the sides $${\displaystyle S_{1},S_{2},S_{3},S_{4}}$$ of any cyclic quadrilateral ABCD are numerically equal to the sines of the angles $${\displaystyle \theta _{1},\theta _{2},\theta _{3}}$$ and See more

The equation in Ptolemy's theorem is never true with non-cyclic quadrilaterals. Ptolemy's inequality is an extension of this fact, and it is a more general form of Ptolemy's theorem. It states that, given a quadrilateral ABCD, then See more
