The correct answer is: Decomposition, rolling wave planning, expert judgment

The correct answer is "Decomposition, rolling wave planning, expert judgment" for the tools and techniques of define activities. Decomposition involves breaking down the project work into smaller, more manageable components. This helps in clearly defining what needs to be done to achieve the project objectives. Rolling wave planning is a progressive elaboration technique where work to be done in the near term is planned in detail, while work in the future is planned at a higher level of the work breakdown structure. This allows for flexibility and adjustment as the project progresses. Expert judgment is valuable in define activities as experienced individuals can provide insights and guidance based on their expertise in similar projects or areas of knowledge.
