La minipágina no está a la misma altura que el cuadro de texto

Question

mientras usa minipage, en la segunda columna hay un cuadro de texto. Cuando utilicé fboxla segunda columna, el texto de la primera columna va hacia abajo, por lo que la altura no permanece igual en ambos lados. Aquí está el código;

\begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
\textbf{Items:}
\begin{itemize}
\item Item1
\item Item2
\item Item3
\item Item3
\end{itemize}
\textcolor{red}{\textbf{Def:}} Cumulative distribution function (cdf ): is the probability that the variable takes a value less than or equal to X.

    \textbf{Items:}
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Item1 
    \item Item1
    \item Item1
    \item Item1
    \end{itemize}
    \textcolor{red}{\textbf{Def:}}  TCumulative distribution function (cdf ): is the probability that the variable takes a value less than or equa l to X.
    \end{minipage}
    %second column
    \begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
    \fbox{%
      \parbox{\textwidth}{%
        \begin{center}
          Useful mnemonics:
          \begin{itemize}
          \item "OIL RIG -- \textbf{O}xidation \textbf{I}s \textbf{L}oss of electrons, \textbf{R}eduction \textbf{I}s \textbf{G}ain of electrons
          \item "OIL RIG -- \textbf{O}xidation \textbf{I}s \textbf{L}oss of electrons, \textbf{R}eduction \textbf{I}s \textbf{G}ain of electrons
          \item "OIL RIG -- \textbf{O}xidation \textbf{I}s \textbf{L}oss of electrons, \textbf{R}eduction \textbf{I}s \textbf{G}ain of electrons
          \item "OIL RIG -- \textbf{O}xidation \textbf{I}s \textbf{L}oss of electrons, \textbf{R}eduction \textbf{I}s \textbf{G}ain of electrons
          \item "OIL RIG -- \textbf{O}xidation \textbf{I}s \textbf{L}oss of electrons, \textbf{R}eduction \textbf{I}s \textbf{G}ain of electrons
          \item "OIL RIG -- \textbf{O}xidation \textbf{I}s \textbf{L}oss of electrons, \textbf{R}eduction \textbf{I}s \textbf{G}ain of electrons
          \end{itemize}
        \end{center}
      }%
    }

    \end{minipage}

y el resultado de este código es así;


Por favor dígame cómo puedo organizarlas para que ambas columnas (o minipáginas) permanezcan a la misma altura. ¡Gracias!

Answer 1

\begin{minipage}[T]{0.48\textwidth}
\textbf{Items:}
\begin{itemize}
\item Item1
\item Item2
\item Item3
\item Item3
\end{itemize}
\textcolor{red}{\textbf{Def:}} Cumulative distribution function (cdf ): is the probability that the variable takes a value less than or equal to X.

    \textbf{Items:}
    \begin{itemize}
    \item Item1 
    \item Item1
    \item Item1
    \item Item1
    \end{itemize}
    \textcolor{red}{\textbf{Def:}}  TCumulative distribution function (cdf ): is the probability that the variable takes a value less than or equa l to X.
    \end{minipage}
    %second column
    \begin{minipage}[T]{0.48\textwidth}
    \fbox{%
      \parbox{\textwidth}{%
        \centering

    }
    \end{minipage}

Utilice la [T]opción para alinear minipages y no utilice todo el espacio horizontal dejando 0.02\textwidth, por ejemplo, \begin{minipage}[T]{0.48\textwidth}estará bien.

Answer 2

Esto alinea el \parbox...con los dos minipageentornos y arregla las cajas defectuosas usando \noindent, eliminando el espacio entre los minipages y reduciendo el ancho del \parboxpara dejar espacio para la línea y el margen de \fbox:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\begin{document}
\noindent
\begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
\textbf{Items:}
\begin{itemize}
  \item Item1
  \item Item2
  \item Item3
  \item Item3
\end{itemize}
\textcolor{red}{\textbf{Def:}} Cumulative distribution function (cdf ): is the probability that the variable takes a value less than or equal to X.

\textbf{Items:}
\begin{itemize}
  \item Item1
  \item Item1
  \item Item1
  \item Item1
\end{itemize}
\textcolor{red}{\textbf{Def:}}  TCumulative distribution function (cdf ): is the probability that the variable takes a value less than or equa l to X.

\begin{minipage}[t]{0.5\textwidth}
\fbox{%
  \parbox[t]{.95\textwidth}{%
