Each note in a scale can be used to form a triad chord.

The 1st note in a scale (also called the Tonic
note) combines the notes C E G.

The 2nd note in the scale (called the Supertonic
note) combines the notes
D F A.

You can use this same method to determine the Triad chords
for each note in the scale.

Remember, the C scale has no flats and no sharps.
This is what the D scale triad chords look like using this
method.

Notice that the triad notes in each chord are the same as
the C scale except that the D scale has 2 sharps: F♯
and C♯.
This same pattern can be used to find the triad chord for
any scale. Here’s one last example. This is what the B♭scale
triad chords look like. (The key of B♭has
2 flats: B♭
and E♭.
