A circle of fifths is used in teaching music theory. The circle of fifths is an imaginary geometrical space that depicts relationships among what are known as the chromatic scales.

Major scales shown in red ring, minor scales in green. Names of enharmonic scales are shown in small print. Accidentials adequate to a given scale are shown in outer, grey ring.
