Trying to use zsh as the default shell (first time) on your iMac w/Catalina; WHERE do I find "Terminal" to complete online instructions??
iMac 21.5", macOS 10.15
Look in the Applications folder which should be located in your Finder's sidebar for the Utilities folder. If you still have trouble use Spotlight and simply type Terminal and it will launch as will any other app when you use Spotlight.

Umm, the default shell is zsh on Catalina, you don't need to change it. What exactly are you trying to do?

"Starting with macOS Catalina, your Mac uses zsh as the default login shell and interactive shell. You can make zsh the default in earlier versions of macOS as well. By default, your Mac uses either zsh or bash as the command-line interpreter for the login shell and interactive shell:
zsh is highly compatible with the Bourne shell (sh) and mostly compatible with bash, with some differences. For more about zsh and its
comprehensive command-line completion system, enter man zsh in Terminal."
Try the path Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities
