No, the wavelength of a wave is measured from crest to crest (or trough to trough) because it represents the distance between two successive points of the same phase on a wave.
False. The wavelength of a wave is actually measured from crest to crest, or trough to trough, not from crest to trough.
The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two consecutive points in phase, either from crest to crest or trough to trough. It represents the length of one complete cycle of the wave and can be measured in meters or any unit of length.
Usually it is shown in diagrams as from where the variable passes across the zero line, but your way will give the same result. It is the length of one complete cycle that matters.
False. The wavelength of a wave is measured from crest to crest or trough to trough, representing the distance between two corresponding points on a wave cycle.
The height of a wave is measured from the center of the wave (the equilibrium position) to the crest or trough of the wave. It is half the distance between the crest and trough of the wave.
False. The wavelength of a wave is actually measured from crest to crest, or trough to trough, not from crest to trough.
False, it is measured from crest to crest.

False. The wavelength of a wave is measured from crest to crest or trough to trough, representing the distance between two corresponding points on a wave cycle.
The trough is the bottom and the crest is the top. The whole vertical length of the crest, trough, and crest are called a wavelength. See related link for a diagram.
The height of a wave is measured from the center of the wave (the equilibrium position) to the crest or trough of the wave. It is half the distance between the crest and trough of the wave.
The correct way to measure wavelength is by using a ruler or measuring device to determine the distance between two corresponding points on a wave, such as two peaks or two troughs. This distance represents the length of one complete cycle of the wave and is typically measured in meters, nanometers, or other units depending on the scale of the wavelength being measured.
Crest to trough
The distance from the crest of one wave to the crest of the next wave is called the wavelength. It is typically measured from crest to crest or trough to trough.
The distance from one trough to another in a wave is called the wavelength. It is the length of one complete cycle of the wave, measured from trough to trough or from crest to crest.
No, you have to measure a complete cycle, for example, from crest to crest.
