Question 9 of 10 When two triads are played at the same time it is called a: A. cadence B. triad duel C. polychord D. dense harmonic

## Step 1<br />The problem is asking for the term that describes the situation when two triads are played at the same time. A triad is a set of three notes that can be stacked vertically in thirds. <br /><br />## Step 2<br />When two such sets are played simultaneously, it is referred to as a polychord. <br /><br />## Step 3<br />The other options provided, such as cadence, triad duel, and dense harmonic, do not accurately describe this situation. A cadence is a sequence of notes or chords that brings a phrase, section, or piece of music to a close. A triad duel is not a recognized term in music theory. Dense harmonic refers to a dense texture of harmonies, but it does not specifically refer to the simultaneous playing of two triads.
