As shown below, there is a 40×3040\times30 paper with a filled 10×510\times5 rectangle inside of it. We want to cut out the filled rectangle from the paper using four straight cuts. Each straight cut is a straight line that divides the paper into two pieces, and we keep the piece containing the filled rectangle. The goal is to minimize the total length of the straight cuts. How to achieve this goal, and what is that minimized length? Show the correct cuts and write the final answer. There is no need to prove the answer.

Two circles ω1,ω2\omega_1,\omega_2 intersect each other at points A,BA,B. Let PQPQ be a common tangent line of these two circles with Pω1P \in \omega_1 and Qω2Q \in \omega_2. An arbitrary point XX lies on ω1\omega_1. Line AXAX intersects ω2 \omega_2 for the second time at YY . Point YYY'\ne Y lies on ω2\omega_2 such that QY=QYQY = QY'. Line YBY'B intersects ω1 \omega_1 for the second time at XX'. Prove that PX=PXPX = PX'.
