The zenith is the point on the celestial sphere that is directly overhead the observer — not east, west, north, or south.

So, none of the listed options is correct.

Zenith: The zenith is the point on the upper portion of the celestial sphere marked by the plumb line above the observer. It is thus the point on the celestial sphere immediately above the observers’ station.

Wrong question. Zenith is the point directly above the observer and it's always 90 degree.

Maybe the answer is North. Because It is above the observer station.
