It's normally called a dotted minim, or using American terminology a dotted half-note, if you are counting in 4 time (counting in crotchets). In 8 time (where each beat is a quaver) it would be a dotted crotchet (dotted quarter-note).
Well, there is no three beat note but it is possible to make one. One way is to take a half note, if the time signature is 4/4, and add a dot to the right of it. The dot will add half of the value of the note, which would be three beats because half of a half note is a quarter note. Another way to do this is to draw two quarter notes with a dot side by side on the same line or space. Then draw a curved line connecting them together, which is called a tie.
If you take a minim (a two beat note shown with an open circle with a stem) and then put a dot on the right, that will be three beats and it would be called a dotted minim.
It is typically a dotted half note, but that depends on the time signature. In 3/4 and 4/4, a three beat note is a dotted half note, but in 6/8, it is a dotted eighth note.
If the time signature is 4/4, then a three beat note would be a dotted minim.
It looks like a crotchet with a dot next to it at the bottom.
Dotted minim
a crotchet is a musical note and it makes 1 beat
If you mean half of a quarter note, then it looks the same as a quarter note but with a flag on the top of the stick.
A eighth note looks like a quarter note with a flag on it, to double it you would put a dot beside it.
A dotted quaver :)

The dot by the right of the note adds half of the notes value. E.g. A minim (a two beat note) with a dot (half of it = 1 beat) makes a three beat note.
A eighth note looks like a quarter note with a flag on it, to double it you would put a dot beside it.
A dotted quaver :)

A dotted minim is a three beat note in music.
It depends on what the count is. If it's 2/4, 3/4 or 4/4, where the quarter note is one beat, then three fourths of a quarter note is a dotted eighth note.If it's 2/2 time, for example, then a beat is a half note, then three fourths of that is a dotted quarter note.
In 3/4 time, a quarter note gets one beat. A half note gets two beats, and a dotted half note gets the entire three beats of a measure.
a dotted half note gets three beats. a "dot" adds half of the value of the note...for example half the value of a half note is one beat...so add that to the half note to get 3 beats
It means that there are two beats in a measure, and a quarter note gets a beat.
like..you hhahaha
