Final answer:

Strike and dip values are used in geology to characterize the orientation of faults.

This correct answer is none of the above.

Step-by-step explanation:

Strike and dip values are used in geology to characterize the orientation of faults.

They do not measure displacement, nor do they provide information about fold geometry or recumbent folds specifically.

Strike and dip measurements are determined using a Brunton Compass, and they help geologists understand the orientation of geological features.

This correct answer is none of the above.
