Consider a string P of length \(l\) that is laid out as a straight-line segment. Another string K is laid out as a semicircular arc with string P as its diameter, as represented in Figure (i). When both the strings are shortened by a length \(x\) they can be re-arranged such that the shortened string K forms a full circle with the shortened string P as its diameter, as represented in Figure (ii). The value of \(x/l\) is ____________

In the given figure, \(\overline{PQ}\) is the diameter of a circle with center \(O\). Two points \(R\) and \(S\) are chosen on the circle such that \(\angle ROS = 80^{\circ}\). When \(\overline{PR}\) and \(\overline{QS}\) are extended, they meet at \(T\). The value of \(\angle RTS\) is .

A thin wire is used to construct all the edges of a cube of 1 m side by bending, cutting and soldering the wire. If the wire is 12 m long, what is the minimum number of cuts required to construct the wire frame to form the cube?
