It depends entirely if you are a brass band trombonist in B flat, or an orchestral trombonist in C!!
Brass band - if you play a C on your Trombone, the same pitch is a Bflat on the piano -
3 semitones lower
Orchestra - the trombone and the piano are in the same pitch.
It all depends on which notes you call you're slide positions on the trombone

Is d double flat the same note as c sharp?
If you go to a piano and count down 2 semitones you land on a C. D double flat is a C just with another name. Double flat means you flatten (lower) the note by 2 two semitones.
If you have music for the piano and want to play it with the baritone and piano how many steps do you need to transpose it?
I'm pretty sure baritone horn and piano are both concert pitched instruments. The Baritone Sax is a transposing instrument and is pitched in Eb. This means that if you play a C it will sound as Eb. Therefore you need to transpose the piano part down 3 semitones. for example... you see a written Eb and you play 3 semitones lower... C You see a written C and you play an A. If in doubt... simply go to a piano and play a C then find the note on your sax.
How do you know what scale to play on a trumpet when playing along with a piano in different keys?
You will play in the key that is a major second or one whole step above the key the piano is playing in. For example, if the piano is playing in C major, the tenor sax will play in D major, if the piano is playing in Bb minor, the tenor sax will be playing in C minor, etc.

E A major second is equivalent to a whole note, or two semitones, and two semitones down from G-flat (which is enharmonically equivalent to F-sharp) is E, although it might be written as F-flat depending on the key signature. F-flat, E to G-flat would be a diminished 3rd, not a major second..
