Horizontal Coordinate System

Hi guys. Great place you got here:D

 

I have a question and I would really appreate any help, any!

 

What is the value of azimuth in zenith (in horizontal coordinate system of course)?

It's kinda tricky I think. My guess is that it could be any value.

 

I would really appreciate any help. I'm kinda in a hurry.

I don't know the convention, but I'm guessing it's just undefined, since assigning some arbitrary azimuth doesn't make much sense, and it would have to be arbitrary.

That was actually what I was thinking. I mean, you could draw infinite circles that go through zenith and nadir, and they could actually form any angle, giving so any values of azimuth!
