If I understand the question, then it includes a false statement.
The angle between an object and the horizon is the object's 'elevation' angle.
'Zenith' is a point in the sky . . . the point directly over your head, whose
elevation angle is 90 degrees regardless of which direction you're facing..

What is the angular distance around the horizon from some reference point?
If the reference point and an object are both on the horizon then the angular distance to the object, relative to the reference point is simply the angle formed between the two rays from the observer to object and to the reference point. If either the object or reference point (or both) are not in the plane of the horizon then the appropriate rays are the projections of the rays from the observer onto the plane containing the horizon.
