For the hyperbola x²/100 - y²/64 = 1 with foci S and S1 (S on the positive x-axis), let P be a point in the first quadrant on the hyperbola with angle SPS1 = alpha (< pi/2). The line through S with slope equal to the tangent slope at P meets line S1P at P1. Let delta be the distance from P to line SP1 and beta = S1P. Find the greatest integer not exceeding (beta*delta/9) sin(alpha/2).
