Answer 1

This question can be answered in a variety of ways :

1.What is another name for an E-flat triad?

D# Triad

2.What is another name for an E-flat/D-sharp triad?

If it's D# minor scale then the triad is D#,F#,A# which can be denoted by i

3.What is another name for an E-flat/D-sharp triad?

If it's D# major scale then the triad is D#,G,A# which can be denoted by I

4.What is another name for an E-flat/D-sharp triad?

If the scale is C minor (C, D, Eb, F, G, Ab, Bb) the the triad would be Eb Major but it would be denoted by III since the chord with the third degree in a minor scale is major.

Just wanted to give you a glimpse of how music theory can be but it's definitely fun to incorporate all of this while composing. :)

Answer 2

I'd be happy to help but I think there needs to be more information to answer this specific question. Which key is this example in? Is it a major, minor, diminished, or augmented Eb triad?
