Find the length of the radius of each circle. To calculate the radius, multiply the distance from the epicenter by 2, and then divide by 1,000 km.

Seismograph records were obtained from an earthquake in Central America. Using the information in the table, locate the epicenter on the map. You will need a compass and ruler. On this map, 1 cm is equal to 1,000 km.
