How to recognise it

Both pieces are in the slot, with the edge flipped and the corner twisted so white faces right.

Its inverse is another case

Do the 41 algorithm backwards, R F U R U' R' F' U' R', and you are solving 40.

That's why CubeDojo never scrambles 41 that way: it builds a random state with the case fixed, so you practise 41 and not 40.
