One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Secondary triads

Secondary triads are the dominant‑type chords that resolve to a diatonic chord other than the tonic, creating a temporary tonicisation of that chord. Mastering secondary triads is essential for recognising harmonic motion, analysing cadences, and composing progressions that enrich the tonal narrative. They are a staple in Nigerian tertiary exams where students must identify and explain progressions in given passages.
