To triangulate means to measure something using trigonometric relationships. It can also mean to survey or map something using the triangulation process.

Triangulating location involves using multiple reference points to pinpoint the exact position of a target. By measuring the angles or distances from each reference point to the target, it is possible to calculate the target's precise location. This method helps in accurately determining the position of a target by reducing errors and providing a more reliable estimate of its coordinates.
GPS works by triangulating a position based on the locations of satellites orbiting the earth. GPS stands for "global positioning system."
Global positional systems (GPS) work by triangulating your position based upon finding your longitude and latitude. A device will find longitude and latitude and the GPS will read that and translate it into maps.

A GPS receiver gets its signal from a network of orbiting satellites that transmit location and timing data. The receiver uses this information to calculate its own position on Earth by triangulating the signals from multiple satellites.
Smartphones use GPS receivers to receive signals from GPS satellites and determine their location. GPS receivers in smartphones work by triangulating the signals from at least four GPS satellites to calculate the phone's latitude, longitude, and altitude.
It can be done by triangulating signal strengths to the cell towers. GPS is not required, but can provide a more precise location if the phone can pick up the satellite signals, in which case the phone reports the GPS location to the cell towers.
Geologists locate the epicenter of an earthquake by analyzing the arrival times of seismic waves from the earthquake recorded by seismographs at different locations. By triangulating the arrival times from at least three stations, they can pinpoint the epicenter where the waves intersect.
To locate the epicenter of an earthquake, scientists use data from seismographs to determine the difference in arrival times of seismic waves at different locations. By triangulating this data from at least three seismograph stations, they can pinpoint the epicenter where the seismic waves originated.
