Waves can be described by:
- frequency/period
- speed
- intensity
- wavelength
- amplitude
- pressure
- shape
- decibels
- Hertz
- phons
- sones
- mels
If you are looking for adjectives that can be used to illustrate or depict a wave, I suggest you ask another question with the type of wave you're looking to describe (soundwave, ocean wave, Miss America's wave, wave of emotion, waves in my hair, a sway, radio wave, light wave, electromagnetic wave, etc.)

What are some ways to describe a wave?
H = cos (wt - kz) describes a wave travelling in the z-direction with angular frequency w and propagation constant k. The frequency is w / 2pi and the speed of the wave is w/k. That is a mathematical way to describe a wave.
If a wave has a low frequency how do you describe the wave length?
The frequency of a wave is not directly related to the wave length. A low frequency wave or a high frequency wave may be either long-wave or short-wave.
What are four ways a 'wave' can be changed?
wavelength, amplitude, frequency, and wave speed
What is a wave describe its types and define them?
balls THATS EASY TIDAL TSUNAMI AND REDTR WAVE
What adjectives describe wave?
speed,huge,big

How do you describe a wave?
Wave is just a disturbance in a regular/periodic/organized way.
If a wave has a low frequency how do you describe the wave length?
The frequency of a wave is not directly related to the wave length. A low frequency wave or a high frequency wave may be either long-wave or short-wave.

What Describe a wave?
A wave is a disturbance that propagates through space and time, usually with transference of energy

Two ways to determine wave speed?
you can determine it by the wavelenght and the period of the wave and the frequencey
