Sat math section

<p>there was a weird question...
like the distance between point t and line l??
if u use Pythagoras formula, u get 5 but
it also can be 4... like the length of other side
i mean there were 90 angles..so it should be parallel ..
isn't the answer
can be both 4 or 5?? cause it didn't ask shortest distance??
haha i suck at explaining but yea...help me??</p>

<p>The distance between a line and a point or another line is the shortest length between the two, so the answer should be 4.</p>

<p>oh dang. which section was this in?</p>

<p>but can’t it be 5 too?? like when u use c^2=a^2+b^2??</p>
