Since you evidently do not know what these words mean, let me help you remember them.
TROugh - rhyme TRO with LOW and you can remember it's the low portion of a wave (just remember the word is pronounced "trauff" though)
Crest - C is for CAP to remind you that the crest is at the top of the wave, like a cap on your head
In a wave, the crest and trough heights are not equal; they represent opposite extremes of the wave's displacement. The crest is the highest point, while the trough is the lowest point. The distance from the equilibrium position to the crest is called the amplitude, and it is the same for the trough, making the amplitude equal in both directions but not the heights themselves. Thus, while the amplitudes are equal, the actual heights of the crest and trough differ in value.
What is the difference between tan number and swift bic ?
different between twist and turn

The difference between one point of a wave and another point is the phase difference, which reflects how much the wave has shifted in terms of position or time. This phase difference determines whether the points are in phase (crest aligns with crest or trough with trough), out of phase (crest aligns with trough), or somewhere in between.
The horizontal distance between the crest or trough of two successive waves is called the wavelength. It is the distance between two corresponding points on a wave, such as from crest to crest or trough to trough.
The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two identical parts of a wave in successive periods (crest to crest, trough to trough, etc.).
The vertical distance between a crest and a trough of a wave is the amplitude of the wave, which represents the maximum displacement of the wave from its equilibrium position. It is measured from the midpoint between the crest and trough to the highest point of the crest or the lowest point of the trough.
Distance between a trough and crest in a wave is half wavelength
wave height. -- The highest point of a wave is known as its crest while the trough is the lowest point of the wave. Wavelength is the horizontal distance between successive crests or troughs. by: Claire O.
The distance between the crest and trough of a wave is the peak-to-peak amplitude of the wave.
wavelength - distance between waves (eg crest to crest or trough to trough)
The distance between the crest of consecutive waves is called the wavelength. It is measured as the distance between two successive points in the same phase of a wave, such as from crest to crest or trough to trough.
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.
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.
In a transverse wave, amplitude is the maximum displacement from the equilibrium position to the crest or trough of the wave. It is a measure of the energy carried by the wave.
