A wave can be described by its wavelength (distance between two consecutive crests or troughs), frequency (number of crests passing a fixed point per unit of time), and amplitude (maximum displacement of a wave from its rest position).
The wavelength of a wave can also be described as the distance between two consecutive peaks or troughs of the wave, or as the distance a wave travels in one complete cycle. Additionally, it can be thought of as the spatial period of the wave.
Light can be described as both an electromagnetic wave and a transverse wave. Its behavior can be explained by both wave theories.

Waves can be described by their amplitude (height of the wave), frequency (number of waves passing a point per second), and wavelength (distance between two consecutive points on a wave that are in phase).
A harmonic may be described by a sine function graphically, and the components of a wave (amplitude, frequency etc...) may be described by their corresponding physics formulas.

A periodic wave.
Light has been described as a wave, which was proven by the double slit experiment. However, Albert Einstein proved that light also behaves like particles. Unfortunately this is all I know about the subject, but it's something!
Light is considered a wave because it exhibits properties of a wave, such as interference and diffraction, and can be described using wave equations.
Certainly! The wavelength of a wave can also be described as the distance between two consecutive corresponding points on a wave, the distance over which the wave's shape repeats, or the length of one complete wave cycle.
