Yes, a triad is a type of chord that consists of three notes. It is built by stacking two third intervals on top of a root note. The most common types of triads are:
1. **Major Triad**: Formed by a root note, a major third above the root, and a perfect fifth above the root (e.g., C-E-G).
2. **Minor Triad**: Formed by a root note, a minor third above the root, and a perfect fifth above the root (e.g., A-C-E).
3. **Diminished Triad**: Formed by a root note, a minor third above the root, and a diminished fifth above the root (e.g., B-D-F).
4. **Augmented Triad**: Formed by a root note, a major third above the root, and an augmented fifth above the root (e.g., C-E-G#).
Triads are fundamental building blocks of harmony in music.
