A major triad consists of the first, third, and fifth note in any major scale played harmonically. On sheet music, a triad appears as these notes stacked on top of each other and are written line to line or space to space. The first note in a triad is also the first note of the scale you are writing in, the the third, then the fifth.

An E major triad in the treble clef would be three notes stacked starting on the first line (or fourth space).

E-G#-B.

Three notes from E is G. In an E major scale, the G is sharp.
