Absolute dating
Geologists determine the absolute age of rocks using radiometric dating techniques, such as carbon dating or uranium-lead dating. These methods rely on measuring the proportions of radioactive isotopes and their decay products in the rocks to calculate how long ago they formed.
The two methods are "RELATIVE DATING" and "ABSOLUTE DATING". :)
Relative dating is the science determining the relative order of past events, without necessarily determining their absolute age Absolute dating is the process of determining an approximate computed age in archaeology and geology.
Finding the age of an object by determining the number of years the object has existed is the purpose Absolute dating.

Radioactive dating refers to the process of measuring the age of an object using the amount of a given radioactive material it contains. Relative dating, meanwhile, measures the order of past events, without determining their absolute age.

you could use the carbon-14 method or the uranium-lead method
No. Radioactive dating is an absolute dating tool.
