Length of lines

Can anyone tell me why these lines drawing in CAD LT that are approximately the same length are being shown as very different lengths? They shouldnt be in 3d as they are drawn the same way and in LT.

If you select a line and look at the properties palette every line has a different start z value and end z value.

Somehow they have been drawn as 3d probably because the circle isn't on Z=0. See the two images below

May I ask, why are you not looking at your 3D content in 3D to help you understand the results you are reporting?

As you can see, a bunch of your lines go far far away from the Z=0 plane for example.
