Shirz, we could possibly help you work it out, if you are doing this as a student, so that you can learn through it. What clues do you have already? Actually, can you tell us what "sixte ajoutée" means? If you don't know the English term, can you describe it?
Do you know: - the key signature of the key of D minor, and thus, what notes are involved before anything is changed (natural minor) - and thus, what that 6th would be? - what is different from those notes, when you have the harmonic minor or ascending melodic minor?

In the musical language of Rameau it should be the subdominant with added sixth and plagal progression to tonic. In d minor : gm6 -->dm (g, bb, d, e --> d, a, d, f).

Shirz, (1) construct your Edim (ii) chord: It consists of e, g, Bb (plus d, if you think of it as dim7 chord). (2) Construct the subdominant (iv) chord with added sixth on the d minor tonic (see my last post). You´ll notice that the tones are the same. The only difference is, that now you have the g as bass tone. With this chord you can construct the plagal (iv -->i) cadence. (3) Ask your teacher, that he should be so kind to explain WHY he asks this, because the answers would be slightly different, if you do not explain this in Rameau´s context but ... f.ex. in the context of Riemann´s functional harmonic theaory.

Perfectly accurate term - was invented by Debussy, in the Great American song book was exactly translated as "added sixth." I still remember the notes 50 -ties with this symbol.

Nahum, thank you for mentioning that Debussy used this term - like many other composers and music scholars did and still do. But the concept was first constructed by Philippe Rameau in his book "Traité de l'harmonie réduite à ses principes naturels" in 1722.
