Hope this helped!

Answer:

1 → B

2 →C

3 → A

Explanation:

Strike slip fault is  where two portions or blocks of lands moves horizontally along the plane in which fault has occurred.They are formed when boundary in the presence of  high levels of friction.

Normal fault in the place where hanging wall recedes down to the relative level of the footwall. They are formed when divergent  boundary, where the crust  stretches.

Reverse fault it is just opposite to the normal fault. in this fault hanging wall rises relative to foot wall.They are formed when divergent  boundary, where the crust  stretches.
