Morphology

tipped = tip (transparent) = tip + ed

The adjective 'tipped' clearly derives from the verb 'tip', indicating a state of having been tipped or inclined.

Etymology

Tipped comes from the simple word tip, which long ago could mean 'to push' or 'to make lean'. So if something is tipped it is 'leaning' or not level, as if it had been given a small push.
