Vertical distance from a wave's highest point to it's lowest point is called the amplitude of a wave.
The vertical distance between a wave's midpoint and its crest or trough is called is peak amplitude. This differentiates this measurement from the vertical distance from a crest to a trough, which is called its peak-to-peak amplitude.
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

The distance from the rest point to the top is called the amplitude. The top of the wave is called a crest and the bottom of a wave is called a trough.

The amplitude of the wave
The amplitude of the wave
Amplitude is approximately half the height of a wave or the vertical distance between still water level and the wave peak.

The distance from the rest point to the top is called the amplitude. The top of the wave is called a crest and the bottom of a wave is called a trough.
The lowest point of a wave is known as the trough
The distance between the crest and trough of a wave is the peak-to-peak amplitude of the wave.
