Dagan has a wooden cube. He paints each of the six faces a different color. He then cuts up the cube to get eight identically-sized smaller cubes, each of which now has three painted faces and three unpainted faces. He then puts the smaller cubes back together into one larger cube such that no unpainted face is visible. Compute the number of different cubes that Dagan can make this way. Two cubes are considered the same if one can be rotated to obtain the other. You may express your answer either as an integer or as a product of prime numbers.

Points $A, B, C$ are chosen on the boundary of a circle with center $O$ so that $\angle BAC$ encloses an arc of $120$ degrees. Let $D$ be chosen on $\overline{BA}$ so that $\angle AOD$ is a right angle. Extend $\overline{CD}$ so that it intersects with $O$ again at point $P$. What is the measure of the arc, in degrees, that is enclosed by $\angle ACP$? Please use the $tan^{-1}$ function to express your answer.
