2 A records, 2 PTR records, just 1 IP - is this proper?

Hi:
Is DNS setup incorrectly for host 10.123.85.254, based in this?:
$ dig -x 10.123.85.254 +short
z7engs005.oursubdomain.ourdomain.com.
tapemonkey.oursubdomain.ourdomain.com.
$ dig z7engs005.oursubdomain.ourdomain.com a +short
10.123.85.254
$ dig tapemonkey.oursubdomain.ourdomain.com a +short
10.123.85.254
In my limited experience w/DNS I thought that you could have only one
name returned when you do a "dig -X"; ie PTR records for a given IP point
to exactly 1 name.
I also thought you could have only one A record associated with a given IP address,
and that this A record defined the canonical name for the host.
