As shown in the figure, there is a rectangular piece of paper ABCD with $\overline { \mathrm { AB } } = 9$ and $\overline { \mathrm { AD } } = 3$. Using the line connecting point E on segment AB and point F on segment DC as the fold line, the paper is folded so that the orthogonal projection of point B onto the plane AEFD is point D. When $\overline { \mathrm { AE } } = 3$, the angle between the two planes AEFD and EFCB is $\theta$. Find the value of $60 \cos \theta$. (Given that $0 < \theta < \frac { \pi } { 2 }$ and the thickness of the paper is negligible.) [4 points]
