What is the meaning of "zenith"?

  1. The lowest point

  2. A complete failure

  3. The highest point

  4. A state of confusion

The correct answer is: The highest point

The term "zenith" refers to the highest point or peak of something, both in a literal and metaphorical sense. In astronomy, it describes the point in the sky directly above an observer, which represents an apex. Metaphorically, it can signify the pinnacle of success or achievement in various contexts, such as a career or a project. Therefore, the answer indicating that "zenith" means the highest point accurately captures its definition and usage in English language contexts.
