Respuesta :
The difference between an earthquake's epicenter and a hypocenter (focus) is an epicenter is a point directly above the hypocenter at the surface of the Earth.
The earthquake's epicenter is the point on the Earth's surface directly above the focus of the earthquake. The epicenter is the projection to the surface, perpendicular to the hypocenter that reflects the intensity of an earthquake.
Scientists use triangulation to find the epicenter of an earthquake. When seismic data is collected from at least three different locations, it can be used to determine the epicenter by where it intersects. The point on the Earth's surface directly above the focus is the epicenter. When energy is released at the focus, seismic waves travel outward from that point in all directions.
