A triad chord has three notes: a root, a third and a fifth. The root depends on the scale name. Lets use C major as an example, the root would be C. The third can be either a minor third or a major third, if it was a minor third I would use E flat. I will use E as the third. Next is the fifth. There are many types such as a diminished fifth, augmented fifth, and perfect fifth. For simplicity’s sake I will use the perfect fifth of C major: G. If I put all these notes together, C,E and G, this will make a major triad. If the notes were C, E flat and G, it would be a minor triad. I will use this page to gain more knowledge on triads.

Module 1 Post 12 [ Degree ]
In music there are degrees, just like in math there are numbers. In total there are 7 degrees: the tonic, the supertonic, the mediant, the subdominant, the dominant, the submediant and the leading tone. All of these make up a normal scale. Lets use the C Major scale as an example. The tonic is C, the supertonic is D, the mediant is E, the subdominant is F, the dominant is G, the submediant is A, the leading tone is B and the scale ends on the tonic, C. These combinations of notes make up the C major scale. I will use this page to memorize the scale degrees.
Module 1 Post 11 [ The Diatonic Scale]
The diatonic scale has 7 different “modes”. Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian and Locrian. Ionian scales start on the tonic note (C major Ionian scale starts from C to C), Dorian scales start on the super tonic (C major Dorian starts from D to D), Phyrgian scales start from the mediant (C major Phyrgian starts from E to E), Lydian starts from the subdominant ( C major Lydian starts from F to F), Mixolydian starts from the dominant ( C major Mixolydian starts from G to G), Aeolian starts from the submediant ( C major Aeolian starts from A to A) and Locrian starts from the leading tone (C major Locrian starts from B to B). This is sort of like how math has numbers. I will use this page to memorize all the diatonic modes.
Module One Post Thirteen [How technology has evolved]
This website is “The Washington Post” and it is very helpful because it has very helpful images, diagrams and information. 1985 – 2002 was the era of tapes to watch videos, 2003 – 2014 was the era of DVDs to watch videos and 2015 + is the era of digital videos. In 2006 94% of homes bought DVDs. On the internet it was different. Until 1993 no households had internet. 1994 – 1999 55% of households had internet. From 2000 – 2005 34% of households had internet but it was slow. 2006 + 86% of households have internet. There are many more examples this website provides such as music. Down below are how phones have developed over 30 years.
Module One Post Twelve [Nanotechnology in Road Building]
Nanotechnology in Road Building
This website is a helpful website because it tells people about how roads can be used for both environment and human purposes. The nanotechnology used in roads can be used for the protection of the earth beneath the roads so the environment can be preserved and not damaged. This website acknowledges the cons of nanotechnology in roads. Normal roads use micro tech so it may be hard to scale it down to nano.
module one post thirteen (field positions)
this website explains the different positions in further depth than the last post (post twelve) but still adds onto my last post. (post twelve) This page also explains the different rules between men and women’s lacrosse.
It will help me to understand the positions in further depth meaning exactly what percent of the field they can play on and the angles they stand depending on their position. It will also help me compare men against women’s field lacrosse rules and positions.

module one post twelve (divisions and rules)
this website states the different positions on the field and was they do. Basically explaining the job of each person on the field.
It is related to math because of the different positions and amount of people on the field. How far up the field each position can go, ex. defenders can only go up 2/3 ways up the field.

module one post eleven (lacrosse sign up)
This website is explaining how and where you can sign up for BC lacrosse.
It is important to know where to sign up if you intend to play or understand the game. It is not a big deal if you don’t intend to play, but if you would like to play then you should know where to sign up. The math part about this is the amount it costs to sign up, the time span you have to sign up, and the time span of how long you will play for. Time spam being the amount of time you will be able to lay for as well as the months throughout the season.

Module One Post Eleven [CPU and GPU]
This website explains the important differences between CPUs and GPU’s. It explains that GPU stands for Graphics Processing Unit and CPU stands for Central Processing Unit. They are very important for computers, especially CPU. GPU is used for video games or animations. Not all computers have GPU because they might not have a graphics card. GPU is also a lot bigger than CPU. Overall this website is pretty good because it displays a lot of examples to make things more clear. GPU and CPU are very important in both the creation of computers and coding.
Module One Post Four (geometry)
Geometry is a branch of mathematics about shape, size, relative position of figures, and the properties of space. A mathematician who works in the field of geometry is called a geometer.
Geometry arose independently in a number of early cultures as a practical way for dealing with lengths, areas, and volumes. Geometry began to see elements of formal mathematical science emerging in the West as early as the 6th century BC.By the 3rd century BC, geometry was put into an axiomatic form by Euclid, whose treatment, Euclid’s Elements, set a standard for many centuries to follow. Geometry arose independently in India, with texts providing rules for geometric constructions appearing as early as the 3rd century BC. Islamic scientists preserved Greek ideas and expanded on them during the Middle Ages. By the early 17th century, geometry had been put on a solid analytic footing gby mathematicians such as René Descartes and Pierre de Fermat. Since then, and into modern times.
While geometry has evolved significantly throughout the years, there are some general concepts that are more or less fundamental to geometry. These include the concepts of points, lines, planes, surfaces, angles, and curves, as well as the more advanced notions of manifolds and topology or metric
Gemoetry is one of the core parts of art you ,in every drawing artists create you coul d fund geometrical shapes in them.
