An A-major chord consists of the notes called A, c*, and E. It can be played on a piano by simultaneously striking strings with fundamental frequencies of 440 Hz, 554.37 Hz, and 659.26 Hz. The rich consonance of the chord is associated with near equality of the frequencies of some of the higher harmonics of the three tones. Consider the first 5 harmonics of each string and determine which harmonics show near equality. (Select all that apply.) O fifth harmonic of A and fourth harmonic of C# O third harmonic of A and second harmonic of E O second harmonic of C# and fourth harmonic of E O fifth harmonic of C# and third harmonic of E O first harmonic of A and first harmonic of E O fourth harmonic of A and first harmonic of C#
