To complete the major triad with the root A, we need to add one more note. In the given notation, we already have the A and C-sharp. The note that completes the major triad is E.
To determine the note that completes the major triad with the root A, we need to understand how major triads are constructed. A major triad consists of three notes: the root (A in this case), the major third, and the perfect fifth.
In the given notation, we see an A and C-sharp on the treble clef. The distance between the root (A) and the major third (C-sharp) is two whole steps, which means we need to find a note that is two whole steps above C-sharp.
To do this, we can use the musical alphabet to count the steps. Starting from C, we count up two whole steps: C -> D (one whole step) -> E (another whole step). Therefore, the note E completes the major triad with the root A.
So, the correct answer is E.
