My solution of Puppy and Triangles: triangulate the quadrilateral (try both diagonals); check if the resulting triangles, given as multisets of sidelength^2, are equal to the two given triangles (in either order). In order to avoid triangulating by an outer diagonal in a non-convex polygon, check also if the area of the given triangles is equal to the area of the quadrilateral.
It seems quite simple, with no special cases. Can you prove it wrong? UPD: I can see where it fails from the editorial.
I think there is another case when quadrilateral is not convex and you can extend one side of it until crossing another. It's also will be a partition into triangles. UPD. Editorial.
