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

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

These methods help geologists determine the relative ages of rock layers and the events that shaped the geological features observed. Radiometric dating, on the other hand, is a method of absolute dating, not relative dating.
