Lines of latitude and longitude help you find a certain location on a map
Paddy field !! Trust me :)
This statement is false. There is actually five types of plains. The five types of plains are coastal plain, alluvial plain, glacial plain, terrestrial plain and flood plain. Plains are flat areas that are usually located in lowlands and at the bottom of the valleys.

To find the epicenter (the point on the earth's surface where an earthquake begins) during earthquakes, one need to view the seismogram (a record of the ground motion), and at least two other seismographs recorded for the same earthquake. Other instruments such as a map, a compass for sketching circles on the map, a ruler, and a pencil will also be used.
The following are the steps of the triangulation process in the correct order to find the epicenter during earthquakes:
Step 1: Subtract the time of P wave arrival from S wave arrival.
Step 2: See what the time difference is equal to in distance on a seismic wave chart.
Step 3: Draw circles representing the distances from at least three seismograph stations to the epicenter on a map.
Step 4: Find the point where all 3 circles intersect, and you've found the earthquake's epicenter.
