also :
4) the distribution of many fossil species and types
5) the distribution of palaeoclimatic indicators, eg. the Permo-carboniferous ice-sheets
6) a viable model for continental drift via the theory of plate tectonics which also includes and explains lot of other geological facts (eg. the pattern of palaeomagnetic striping on the sea floors, the Wadati-Benioff zone, the 'ring of fire', mountains and tectonic movements, the distribution of igneous rock types, and etc etc).

1) Simple observation. The continents look like they moved apart because their profiles look similar at the edges.
2) Direct measurement of the movement by measuring the distance between fixed points across say the atlantic, and seeing that the distance increases over time.
3) The matching coastal rock types on different continents, showing that they were once in the same spot.
