Let P be a point on the graph of equation, (x-94)^2 + (y-4)^2 = 44^2. What is the shortest possible distance between P and the x-axis?

The circle has a  center  at   ( 94 , 4)      and a  radius  of  44

 

The graph  actually intersects  the  x axis......see here : https://www.desmos.com/calculator/6tw80ttnhs
