From the aspect of research achievements of modern music theory, there is no distinction of relationship all the cords or scale dividing the octave, so they are non-tone character or vague tone.

Therefore, it makes the augmented triad obtain the non-tone or vague tone character. We can use this vagueness to transform the tone freely or construct contrast between the vagueness and definition, enabling music develop between definition and vagueness.
