How do you read key signatures?
Key signatures are the sharps or flats at the beginning of the staff. To identify the key signature of a scale that consists of all sharps, look at the last sharp in the key signature. Whichever note the last sharp lies on, the key of the scale is one note above it. To identify the key signature of a scale that consists of all flats, look at the note directly before the last flat in the key signature. The second-to-last note is the name of the key signature of flat keys. However, you cannot use this helpful trick with the F Major Scale which only has one flat (B flat).

What is the principle or the rules in finding the key signature?
TO FIND THE KEY FROM THE KEY SIGNATUREIf the key signature has sharps:The major key is the note above the last sharp in the key signature.The minor key is the note below the last sharp in the key signature.Ex: key signature with sharps f-c-g is A major or F-sharp majorIf the key signature has flats:The major key is the note of the next to last flat in the key signature. If there is only one flat, it is F major.The minor key is the note TWO notes above the last flat in the key signature.Ex: key signature with the flats b-e-a-d-g is D-flat major or B-flat minorIf the key signature has no flats or sharps:The major key is C.The minor key is A.TO CREATE THE KEY SIGNATURE FROM THE KEYThe sharps always go in this order: F-C-G-D-A-E-B-C (circle of fifths)If you are creating the key signature for a major key, keep writing sharps until the last sharp is the note below the key you need.If you are creating the key signature for a minor key, keep writing sharps until the last sharp is the note above the key you need.Ex: The key signature for B major and G-sharp minor is f-c-g-d-a.The flats always go in this order: B-E-A-D-G-C-F (circle of fourths)If you are creating the key signature for a major key, keep writing flats until the next-to-last flat is the key you need.If you are creating the key signature for a minor key, keep writing flats until the last flat is TWO notes below the key you need.Ex: The key signature for E-flat major and C minor is b-e-a.The key signature for C major and A minor has no flats or sharps.The key signature for F major and d minor has ONE flat (B-flat).
