East
North
South
West

Respuesta :

I believe south but not 100% sure hope I’m right

Answer:

South

Explanation:

The declination of a star is measured in degrees, whether if it’s north (+) or south (-). Also, the declination has a central line that defines the north and the south that is called the celestial equator. If a star has a +90 degree declination, then it’s referring to the North Celestial Pole; and if the star has a -90 degree declination, then it’s referring to the South Celestial Pole.
