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

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

Radiometric dating is a method of absolute dating, not relative dating. Original angularity and angular relationships are related concepts but not standard methods for relative aging.
