The 1964 earthquake in Anchorage, Alaska occurred as a result of an oceanic plate sinking under a continental or land plate. Two types of tsunami were produced as a result of this massive quake.
It was a Transform Boundary.
Earthquakes are caused by tectonic activity of the earth. In otherwords, the earth caused the great kanto earthquake :P (: The Philippine plate and the Honshu Plate rubbing together caused the tremors in the earth and the earthquake :)
An intraplate earthquake is an earthquake that occurs in the interior of a tectonic plate. However, an interplate earthquake is one that occurs at a plate boundary.
The Kansu earthquake took place on the Weihe Basin fault, not on a plate boundary. The Weihe Basin is a normal dip-slip fault.
A destructive plate boundary.
No. The Haitian earthquake was caused by a transform boundary.

It was a Transform Boundary.

No it was a destructive plate boundary.
Convergence plate boundary between the Eurasian Plate and the Indian Plate.
There was a big earthquake in japan on Friday the 11th of march. it was caused by a destructive plate boundary. the pacific plate moved down under the Eurasian plate. That caused a lot of pressure in the epicenter what was about 200km far from Tokyo. The result was an earthquake. the earthquake caused a tsunami. It was up to 10 m high waves destroyed thousands of houses in the coast of japan.

Haiti is on the boundary of two tectonic plates, the North American plate and the Caribbean plate. The shifting of these plates is what caused the massive 7 magnitude earthquake on January 12, 2010.
The Kashmir Earthquake was affected by the destructive tectonic plate boundaries. Eurasian and Indian plate hitting each other. Thats what caused the Himalayas. Once, they hit an earthquake occurs.
