As far as cutting the countertop, the blade that came with your RIDGID saw will do it, but there are blades specificly for that purpose. The problem you will have is with chipping the formica. There are blades made specificly for formica and melamine, that minmize chipping. So if you are planning to cut large amounts of countertop, I would recommend one of these blades. If you just need to make one or two cuts, a strip of masking tape where the cut will be made will help prevent chipping with a regular blade.
