Height
It is called height :)
The vertical distance from the top of a wave to the bottom of a wave is called the amplitude.
The distance from the top of one wave to the top of the next wave is called the wavelength. It is commonly denoted by the symbol λ and is a characteristic of waves that can be used to describe their properties.
Latitude
It is base*vertical distance between top and bottom (the perpendicular height).
The word "base" is just fine for this purpose.
The top part of a tornado is called "the top"
The top of a tornado is called the funnel cloud. This is the visible, rotating column of air that extends from the cloud base down towards the ground.
The 'base' is the length of the side that the triangle is standing on.The 'height' is the vertical distance from that line to the vertex atthe top of the triangle.
The base of a column is exactly that...a base. Typically, columns are dived into three parts. The bottom (base), the middle (shaft), and the top (capital).
They each have a base and a 'top' called a vertex.
pi * r * s, where r is the radius of the base and s is the distance along the edge of the cone from the top to the base (not the height).
