Final answer:

To indent a list item to 1 inch on Slide 2, select the list text box, choose the list item, and adjust the hanging indent marker on the ruler to the 1-inch mark. This is analogous to setting a hanging indent in Microsoft Word.

Step-by-step explanation:

To change the indent of a list item on Slide 2 to 1 inch, you need to adjust the list's indentation settings in your presentation software. If you are using Microsoft PowerPoint, here is how you can do it:

  • Select the text box containing the list on Slide 2.
  • Click on the list item you wish to change.
  • Go to the ruler at the top of the slide. If the ruler is not visible, you can enable it from the View menu by selecting 'Ruler'.
  • On the ruler, you will see two markers that control the indentation: the upper triangle (the first-line indent) controls the indentation of the first line, while the lower square under it (the hanging indent) controls the indentation of the subsequent lines of the list item.
  • Click and drag the lower square marker to the right until it aligns with the 1-inch mark on the ruler to set the hanging indent to 1 inch.

The first line of your list item will start at the left margin, and the subsequent lines will be indented to the 1-inch mark you've just set. This technique is similar to setting a hanging indent in Microsoft Word.
