An inversion places a non-root note in the bass.

A# root position: A# in bass. First inversion: D in bass. Second inversion: F in bass. Inversions create smoother bass line movement without changing the harmony.

For A#: start on A#, add 4 semitones, then 7 semitones. Practicing this across all 12 roots builds instant recognition of any major chord.
