Connect BD, AC, pay F;; FE//PC exceeds F, and E exceeds PA.
∵EF∈ surface EBD, ∴PC// surface EBD, then E is what you want.
PA = AD = 2,AB=BC= 1
∴AC=√2,BD=√5
⊿adf∽⊿cbf==>; AF/FC=AD/BC=2
∴af/f=ae/ep=2==>; (AF+FC)/FC=(AE+EP)/EP=3
∴PE/PA= 1/3
(2) Analysis: Establish a spatial rectangular coordinate system A-xyz with A as the origin, AD as the X axis, AB as the Y axis and AP as the positive direction of the Z axis.
Then point coordinates:
A(0,0,0),B(0, 1,0),C( 1, 1,0),D(2,0,0),P(0,0,2)
Vector PB=(0, 1, -2)
Vector PC=( 1, 1, -2)
Vector PD = (2,0, -2)
Let the vector m=(x, y, z) be the normal vector of surface PBC,
Vector m vector PB=y-2z=0
Vector m vector PC=x+y-2z=0
Let y= 1, then x = 0 and z = 1.
Vector m = (0,2,1) = = > Vector m|=√5
Let the vector n=(x, y, z) be the normal vector of surface PCD.
Vector n Vector PD=2x-2z=0
Vector n vector PC=x+y-2z=0
Let x= 1, then y = 1 and z = 1.
Vector n = (1, 1,1) = >; Vector n|=√3
Vector m vector n=3
Cos< vector m, vector n > = vector m vector n/| vector M || = 3/√15 = √15.
The cosine of dihedral angle B-PC-D is -√ 15/5.
