How do geologists determine the location of an earthquake's epicenter?

Seismographs record the arrival times of seismic waves. Comparing the times of the faster P-waves and slower S-waves at a station reveals how far away the earthquake was; data from at least three stations can be used to triangulate the epicenter. Therefore, the correct choice is using seismograph data to triangulate distances from multiple seismic stations.
