There is therefore a tendency for movement and resolution. In notation form, it is referred to with a c following the chord position (For e.g., Ic. Vc or IVc). [citation needed] In figured bass, a second-inversion triad is a 6 4 chord (as in I 6 4), while a second-inversion seventh chord is a 4 3 chord.
In music theory, an inversion is a rearrangement of the top-to-bottom elements in an interval, a chord, a melody, or a group of contrapuntal lines of music. [2] In each of these cases, "inversion" has a distinct but related meaning. The concept of inversion also plays an important role in musical set theory.
The added-sixth chord (notated "6") is rarely inverted since it shares its notes with a seventh chord a minor third down (e.g. C 6 has the same notes as an Am 7), although a counterexample is The 5th Dimension's recorded version of "Stoned Soul Picnic" (on 5). [7]

2) to a first inversion tonic chord (I 6). [11] Because the seventh of the dominant chord must fall stepwise to the third of the tonic chord, it forces the cadence to resolve to the less stable first inversion chord. To achieve this, a root position V usually changes to a V 4
Typically, it refers to a note shared between two chords in a chord progression. According to H.E. Woodruff: Any tone contained in two successive chords is a common tone. Chords written upon two consecutive degrees of the [diatonic] scale can have no tones in common. All other chords [in the diatonic scale] have common tones.
The root position of a chord is the voicing of a triad, seventh chord, or ninth chord in which the root of the chord is the bass note and the other chord factors are above it. . In the root position, uninverted, of a C-major triad, the bass is C — the root of the triad — with the third and the fifth stacked above it, forming the intervals of a third and a fifth above the root of C, respective
The chord a minor third above, ♭ VII 7, may be substituted for the dominant, and may be preceded by its ii: iv 7. [16] Due to common use the two chords of the backdoor progression (IV 7-♭ VII 7) may be substituted for the dominant chord. [11] In C major the dominant would be G7: GBDF, sharing two common tones with B ♭ 7: B ♭ DFA ♭.
