Final answer:

The correct order of the four parts of a cover letter is heading, introduction, body, and closing.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct order that the four parts of a cover letter should appear in is:

  1. Heading (your return address, date, inside address)
  2. Introduction (explanation of why you are writing the letter)
  3. Body of the letter (argument or main points)
  4. Closing (final thoughts and signature)

Remember to use a professional business font, single spacing with a double space between paragraphs, and to include your name and signature at the end of the letter.
