For single line, the content aligned nicely, but that's not the case when the it contains multiple lines. The alignment is odd:
So how can I make them align nicely?
Mimimum Example
\documentclass[10pt,letterpaper]{article}
\usepackage[left=1in,right=1in,top=1in,bottom=1in]{geometry}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\setcounter{tocdepth}{3}
\setcounter{secnumdepth}{3}
\usepackage[bookmarksopen,bookmarksdepth=3]{hyperref}
\usepackage{titlesec}
\usepackage{xcolor}
%define new colors
\definecolor{dark-red}{rgb}{0.4,0.15,0.15}
\definecolor{dark-blue}{rgb}{0.15,0.15,0.4}
\definecolor{medium-blue}{rgb}{0,0,0.5}
%set up color for table of contents
\hypersetup{
colorlinks, linkcolor={medium-blue},
citecolor={dark-blue}, urlcolor={medium-blue}
}
\usepackage{tocloft}
%preven linebreak between subsection header and its content
\usepackage{titlesec}
\titleformat{\subsection}[runin]{\normalfont\bfseries}{\thesubsection.}{3pt}{}
\titleformat{\section}[runin]{\normalfont\bfseries}{\thesection.}{3pt}{}
\begin{document}
\setlength{\cftsecnumwidth}{8em} % Set numwidth of section
\setlength{\cftsubsecnumwidth}{12em} % Make subsection numwidth the same as section
\setlength{\cftsubsecindent}{\cftsecindent} % Make subsection indent the same as section
\tableofcontents
\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}
\setlength{\parskip}{1ex}
\newpage
\phantomsection
\section*{Problem 4.}
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}
{
\numberline{Problem 4.}Let $T$ be a tree with $n > 1$ nodes. What is the maximum number of degrees one vertex $T$ can have?
What his the minimum number of degree one vertex $T$ can have? Justify both answers.

within the ToC entry, which eventually end up in the PDF bookmarks. To get rid of this,hyperref
provides the conditional\texorpdfstring{<tex-string>}{<pdf-string>}
. You would use it in the following way:
