All scales can be found by using a formula that begins with the major scales. You can also use this formula to figure out any chords that are unfamiliar or with any cross scales.
Most of these are basic ,but they help as good references.

Major= root of standard triad
minor = b 3rd and any 10th that may exist in the chording
example- G
sus= # 3rd
aug= # 5th
dim= b 3rd and b 5th
6= ## 5th
maj6= # 5th
m6= b 3rd and ## 5th
7= bb 8th
maj7= b 8th
m7= b 3rd and bb 8th
mmaj7= b 3rd and b 8th
9= adding a 2nd and a 7th to the chording
add9= ## 8th or bb 3rd it's still the same note ,but in
different octs.
there are a lot more rules that simplify the whole scale name thing ,but i can't type so fast.
