To find the wavelength of a wave, you would typically measure the distance between two consecutive corresponding points on the wave. This could be from crest to crest, trough to trough, or any two identical points in the wave cycle.
Without a diagram, it's hard to specify the exact points, but typically, you would look for two points that represent the same part of the wave cycle (like the peak or the trough).
If you have the option between B and F, A and G, C and E, and B and D, the best choice would be one that reflects the same points in repeating wave patterns (e.g., crest to crest or trough to trough).
If you can specify which points correspond to similar parts of the wave, that would help in identifying the correct answer.
