Wavelength
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

wave height
The amplitude is the distance between the the zero position and the crest or the zero position and the trough so the vertical distance means double the amplitude.
It is called the wave height.
The wave's wavelength is the name is the distance between wave crest.

wavelength - distance between waves (eg crest to crest or trough to trough)
It is called the wave height.
by measuring the distance from crest to crest.
If it's crest to crest and trough to trough then it's the wavelength.
In the direction of propagation, it's one-quarter the wavelength. Perpendicular to that, it's the amplitude (or half the amplitude, depending on what definition you're using).
If you notice that the number of waves that go past increases you also find that the distance between each crest is shorter and shorter (narrower and narrower).
