The three correct methods of relative aging of rocks from your options are:

  1. Superposition
  2. Cross-cutting relationships
  3. Original horizontality

Angular relationships and original angularity are not standard methods of relative dating, and radiometric dating is a method of absolute dating, not relative dating.
