How did circe help and hinder Odysseus?
Circe hinders Odysseus by first turning his men into animals and delaying Odysseus' progress. Once Odysseus manages to resist her spell (with Hermes' help), Odysseus then take her to bed for her to turn his men back into humans. For a year after, Odysseus feasts and stays with Circe, which further delays his return to Ithaca. When Odysseus and his men feel it is time to leave, Circe helps Odysseus by advising him to visit the prophet Teiresias in the Underworld. There he learns of the dangers ahead of Scylla, Charybdis, the Sirens, and Helios' cattle.

In the Iliad and the Odyssey, Odysseus' ship is destroyed multiple times. One time the sea monster Charybdis destroys his ship in a whirlpool and drowns the rest of his men.

There are also many other times where Odysseus' ship was not harmed, but other ships in his fleet had suffered damage.
How does Odysseus use intelligence with his encounter with Scylla?
He shows intelligence by listenng to circe and not trying to fight either of the monsters, but staying closer to scylla because charybdis can take the hole ship while scylla can only take 6 men at a time."In Homer's Odyssey XII, Odysseus is given advice by Circe to sail closer to Scylla, for Charybdis could drown his whole ship: "Hug Scylla's crag-sail on past her-top speed! Better by far to lose six men and keep your ship than lose your entire crew"[6] she warns, and tells Odysseus to bid Scylla's mother, the river nymph Crataeis, to prevent her from pouncing more than once. Odysseus then successfully sails his ship past Scylla and Charybdis, but Scylla manages to catch six of his men, devouring them alive." (Wikipedia).

What two tricks does Odyddeus play on the Cyclops?
Its Odysseus, not Odyddeus. One of them is where he hides himself, (or clokes himself with a magical item. One of the two...). And then he called him a name. The Cyclops, Polymyth, was angry, and asked, "who's there"? Odysseus said, "Nobody". Polymyth, being a cyclops, wasn't, the sharpest tool in the shed, and he thought "Nobody" was Odysseus's name. He threw boulders at the spot where he thought he heard it. That gave time for Odyseus to escape... Sorry, but I'm not sure what the second one was.
