According to many Rishonim only three walls are required to create a Reshus Hayachid, and can be accomplished with two full walls and a lechi. Do the two full walls need to be parallel or perpendicular or doesn’t matter?

Major Question:

The Gemara seems to say clearly that only three walls are necessary to create a Reshus Hayachid. How does the Rambam who rules that four walls are required learn our gemara?

Learn רבינו חננאל on the side of the Gemara for a different way to explain our gemara.

Major Question on ר”ח and Rambam:

In the answer of the Gemara having three walls and a lechi is considered a Reshus Hayachid.  But according to Rava לחי is a היכר why is this Mavui considered a Reshus Hayachid?

Why does ר”ח say the tikun on the third side is a door? Why not a Tzuras hapesach?
