A triangle, up to similarity, is completely determined by two of its internal angles.
A quadrilateral can be divided into two triangles, and those two triangles are independent from each other; thus, one should expect a quadrilateral would be completely determined by four independent angles. This makes quadrilaterals special as the only polygon that should be determined by as many angles as its number of sides. Those cannot be its internal angles, though, since they add up to $360^\circ$ (not independent).
So I was wondering: what set of four angles could completely determine a quadrilateral? The most natural option for me were the angles between the sides and the diagonals. More precisely, let $ABCD$ be a quadrilateral; the angles I'm referring to are $\angle ABD$, $\angle BCA$, $\angle CDB$ and $\angle DAC$. I've marked'em in red in the image below.
Do those four angles really determine the quadrilateral up to similarity? How can you construct the quadrilateral from those angles? More interestingly, how can you determine all of the sides and diagonals lengths (up to proportion) with the given angles?
It is worth investigating what properties we can recover from the given angles. Let $$\begin{array}{cccc} \alpha_1 := \angle BAC, & \beta_1 := \angle CBD, & \gamma_1 := \angle DCA, & \delta_1 := \angle ADB,\\ \alpha_2 := \angle DAC, & \beta_2 := \angle ABD, & \gamma_2 := \angle BCA, & \delta_2 := \angle ADB. \end{array}$$
Then, for instance, a quadrilateral is cyclic if, and only if, $$\alpha_1+\beta_1+\gamma_1+\delta_1 = \alpha_2+\beta_2+\gamma_2+\delta_2 = 180^\circ.$$ In this case, we can deduce $$\begin{cases} BC = 2R\sin\alpha_1\\ CD = 2R\sin\beta_1\\ DA = 2R\sin\gamma_1\\ AB = 2R\sin\delta_1 \end{cases}$$ where $R$ is the quadrilateral circumradius. Thus, cyclic quadrilaterals can be, in fact, completely determined with this.
Also, for any quadrilateral, the following equation is satisfied $$\sin\alpha_1\sin\beta_1\sin\gamma_1\sin\delta_1 = \sin\alpha_2\sin\beta_2\sin\gamma_2\sin\delta_2.$$ The last one can be proven with the law of sines.
