The longest distance in a circle is its diameter.
Since a trapezoid is a quadrilateral whose bases are parallel and not congruent, then one of its sides can be perpendicular to its bases (as the shortest distance between two parallel lines). Such a trapezoid is called a right trapezoid.
the Greeks had a food that looked like a pyramid and was called something similar to it.
The distance between identical points on a wave is called wavelength.
a pyramid
The distance from the apex to the base of a pyramid is known as the altitude.
If you mean the distance along the direction of propagation, that's a half-wavelength. If you mean the distance perpendicular to propagation (i.e. the "height" of the wave), it's the amplitude.
The half perpendicular distance from the top of the crest to the bottom of the trough is called the amplitude. It represents the maximum displacement of a wave from its equilibrium position.
The distance from the applied force to the fulcrum is called the effort arm or lever arm. It is the perpendicular distance between the line of action of the force and the fulcrum in a lever system. The length of the effort arm affects the mechanical advantage of the lever.
The distance between two points is called the "distance" or "Euclidean distance" in geometry.
The distance between two adjacent compressions is called a wavelength
In any rotation the perpendicular distance coverd called moment arm . & also called position vector. for example :. in door the perp; distance b/w door & wall.
The shortest distance between any two points is called displacement.
This distance is called the diameter.
perpendicular crosses at a right angle, while intersecting lines don't
The line perpendicular to a barrier is called the normal.
The distance between the tops of waves is called the wavelength. It is measured as the distance between two consecutive crests (or troughs) of a wave.
