Saving when you're finished and ready to print ensures that you have a final version of the document that can be easily accessed later.

I need to indent the first line of my paragraph. To do this I would:
- Use the SHIFT key
- Use the TAB key
- Use the SPACEBAR
Correct Answer

A. Use the TAB key

Explanation

To indent the first line of a paragraph, one can use the TAB key. Pressing the TAB key moves the cursor or text insertion point to a predetermined position set by the software, typically around half an inch from the left margin. This creates an indentation at the beginning of the paragraph, visually separating it from the rest of the text. Using the SHIFT key or the SPACEBAR does not perform the same function as the TAB key and will not achieve the desired result of indenting the first line of the paragraph.
