    This triad is consequently called the supertonic diminished triad. Like the supertonic minor triad found in a major key, the supertonic diminished triad has a predominant function, almost always resolving to a dominant functioning chord. [7] If the music is in a minor key, diminished triads can also be found on the raised seventh note, ♯ vii o.
