A triad in which the root is the lowest note is called a root-position triad. Close position indicates containment of all chord pitches within the smallest possible interval. Diatonic indicates confinement to the pitches of the prevailing key without chromatic alteration. Answers in this exercise are limited to diatonic close root-position triads. ________________________________________________________________________________ 1. Each of the notes below is the root of a triad. Draw a note a third above each root.

A root-position minor triad is composed of three notes stacked in thirds. The interval between the bottom two notes (root and third) is a minor third (m3). The interval between the top two notes (third and fifth) is a major third (M3). The interval between the bottom and top notes (root and fifth) is a perfect fifth (P5). Answers in this exercise are limited to close root-position minor triads.
