Problem

figure

As shown in the figure, in the cube ABCD-A1B1C1D1ABCD\text{-}A_1B_1C_1D_1 with edge length 11, a point PP moves on the segment A1BA_1B. Let ll be the line of intersection of the plane DD1PDD_1P and the plane CC1PCC_1P.

1. Prove that l∥CC1l\parallel CC_1.

2. Suppose PP is the point of the segment A1BA_1B with A1P=14A1BA_1P=\dfrac{1}{4}A_1B. Find the sine of the dihedral angle between the plane DD1PDD_1P and the plane CC1PCC_1P.
