A dot after a note increases the note by half of its original value. Therefore a dotted half note is equal to 3 beats (2+1) in 4/4 time. The second dot is equal to half the value of the FIRST DOT. The value of the first dot of a half note in 4/4 time is 1 beat. Therefore the second dot would be half of a beat, which is an eighth note. Now do the math to put it all together 2+1+1/2=3 1/2 beats. Another way to think of its duration is the equivalent, in 4/4 time, of 3 quarter notes and 1 eighth note.
A half note is worth 2 beats.
Whole Note (Semibreve) = 4 beats
Half Note (Minim) = 2 beats
Quarter Note (Crotchet) = 1 beat
Eighth Note (Quaver) = 1/2 beat
Sixteenth Note (semi-Quaver) = 1/4 beat
etc.
A dotted note is worth one and a half times the worth of the same note without the dot.
eg. a crotchet is worth 1 beat so a dotted crotchet is worth 1 and 1/2 beats.
or, a quaver is worth 1/2 a beat so a dotted quaver is worth 3/4 of a beat.
in common time (4/4) there are two beats in a half note. However, if your time signature has a 2 on the bottom (cut time or 2/2) the half note will get the beat
The difference between one key on the keyboard and the next is a "semitone".
One semitone's frequency is 2^(1/12) times that of the semitone below.
A dotted half note (dotted quaver) is worth half (for the quaver) and half of the quaver (i.e. a quarter)
So in total it is three quarters.

How much are each music note worth?
A whole note is worth 4 beats, a half note is worth 2 beats, a quarter note is worth 1 beat, an eighth note is worth 1/2 a beat, a sixteenth note is worth 1/4 of a beat, a dotted half note is worth 3 beats, and a dotted quarter note is worth 1 and a 1/2 beats.
When a dot is placed after any note what dies it mean?
It extends the note for exactly half its value. For example, a dotted half note is worth three beats. Half of a half note is one beat, add that on to the two beats a half note is already worth, and there you have it. Three beats. So, basically we have a half note: 2 We place a dot after it, this dot being worth half its value: 1 It becomes: 3 Half of a half note is not necessarily one beat. These dots have nothing whatsoever to do with beats. If you have a note with a dot after it, the length of that note is extended by 1/2 of that note's length. A second dot means it is extended a further 1/4. Completely irrespective of how many beats there are in a bar.
