Here are a number of pictures for each of the types. Redwoods: http://images.google.com/images?um=1&hl=… Sequoia: http://images.google.com/images?um=1&hl=… Cedar: http://images.google.com/images?um=1&hl=… Cedars are the easiest to tell because their leaves are modified flat scale. Sequoias needles are tiny, overlapping, and similar to Juniper. Redwood needles are flat and the branches look kind of like fans in that they are very flat.
