Multiple Choice If you are building a triad whose root is located on a line on the staff, where will the third and the fifth be located? (1 point) Responses on lines on lines on spaces on spaces The third will be on a line and the fifth on a space. The third will be on a line and the fifth on a space. not enough information to tell

To answer this question, it is important to remember how triads are constructed in music. A triad consists of three notes: the root, the third, and the fifth.

When the root of the triad is on a line on the staff, the third and fifth will typically be positioned as follows:

- **Root on a line**: The third will be located on a space (the line above the root), and the fifth will be on another line (the line above the third).

So the correct response would be:

**The third will be on a space and the fifth will be on a line.**

Multiple Choice A triad that contains the notes A and C could also contain which of the following notes? (1 point) Responses F F B B E E F or E

A triad consists of three notes: the root, the third, and the fifth. In this case, if the notes A and C are part of the triad, we can determine the possible third note based on their relationship.

- A is the root note.
- C is the minor third above A.

To complete the triad, we need to find the fifth note. In the case of an A minor triad (A, C, E), E would be the fifth note.

So, the answer to the question is:

**E**.

Click on the play button below to listen to a chord. Is this a major triad? (1 point) Responses yes yes no

I'm unable to play audio or listen to sounds directly, as I cannot interact with multimedia elements. However, I can help you determine whether a chord is a major triad based on the characteristics of major triads.

A major triad consists of:

1. The root note.
2. A major third above the root.
3. A perfect fifth above the root.

To determine if a chord is a major triad, you can analyze the notes in the chord:

- Identify the root note.
- Check the interval between the root and the next note: if it's a major third (4 half-steps), you’re on the right track.
- Check the interval between the root and the highest note: if it’s a perfect fifth (7 half-steps from the root), then the chord is a major triad.

If the chord meets these criteria, then the answer would be **yes**. If it does not, the answer would be **no**.

Listen for these intervals, and you should be able to determine if it's a major triad!
