What is an augmented interval?

Generally, augmentation means to enlarge. In music theory, augmentation can be applied both to note values (time/duration) and to intervals (pitch relationship between to pitches). When you augment a note value you increase the duration of the note (the time you hold the note) over its previous value. Augmenting an interval is the process of increasing an interval by exactly one chromatic semitone (raise the interval a 1/2 step). In chord theory, an Augmented chord always means you are raising the 5th by a 1/2 step. Technically, you can augment any interval (unisons, seconds, thirds, etc.), but in practical terms, augmented intervals are reserved for the perfect intervals of 4ths and 5ths.

Distance between a and d in music?

In the standard equal-tempered scale in use in nearly all modern Western music, each octave is divided into 12 semitone intervals, where each semitone interval is taken to represent a fixed percentage increase in frequency.An increase in pitch of one octave corresponds to a doubling in frequency (ignoring some subtle psychoacoustic effects near the limits of perception). If we say that each semitone corresponds to an increase of a factor k in frequency, then from the fact that twelve semitones equal one octave we obtain:k12 = 2.Hence, k = 21/12 which is approximately 1.05946. That is, an increase in pitch of one semitone is equivalent to an increase in frequency of about 5.946%.
