It depends on what you are given.
If you know the speed and the wavelength you can determine it by using the formula:
Speed = Wavelength * Frequency

I cannot be sure but I believe that it has to do with measuring the distance between concurrent (one after the other) crest of the waves or the measuring of concurrent dips in the wave....I hope this makes sense!!!

frequency measured in Hertz is cycles per second
The period is the time (seconds) it takes to make a single cycle.
period and frequency are inversly related
therefore
frequency = 1 / period

I think you have to divide the height of the breaker by something..sorry I forgot. Possibly the distance between each crescent or the height from the floor...
