The wavelength is the distance from one peak (or trough) of the wave to the next peak (or trough). The amplitude is the distance from the mean value to the top of the peak (or the bottom of the trough). Alternatively, the amplitude is one half of the distance between the height of peak to the depth of the trough.How you measure these depends on the nature of the waves.
The vertical distance between trough and crest is called the height of the wave. While the crest is the highest point of a wave, the trough is the lowest point.Are you talking about waves? That simply depends on the frequency of the wave; crest and trough are just terms given to sections of waves. The crest is the top of the wave, and the trough is the bottom.It's the amplitude. Like on the drawn parts of a transverse wave. You can look it up on google images.wave hight
Depends where. If a peak meets a peak, then the amplitude of that peak will increase. Same with troughs. However if the waves have the same amplitude, and a peak meets a trough, they will cancel out, and you will be left with a dead spot, not affected by the wave.

The top of a wave, because its cut in half and the waves amplitude is on top...

the loudness of sound depends on the amplitude of the waves that compose it, i.e. the difference in pressure between the crest and the trough of the wave.

This is just the definition of "amplitude". The amplitude of a wave is the height of the wave. "Amplitude" is a fancier name for "height" when we speak about waves.

to measure the amplitude, you measure from the trough to midline.
