How do you type an exponent in Power point?

[bendure]

I teach Algebra 1 and Algebra 2. I would love to use Power Point in my
presentations. How do i type an exponent.

y = x2 + 4

Should read y = x squared + 4. How do i get the 2 to look like an exponent?

Highlight the 2, and choose Font from the Format menu. Check the box for
superscipt.

Format/Font and check the option for superscript.

You can put the superscript tool on your toolbar by going to Tools/Customize
and dragging the tool up from the dialog.

Highlight the 2 and press Ctrl-Shift-+ (the "plus" key), or Ctrl-+ for
subscript - at least this works on my German keyboard, I hope it's the same
on yours (if not, search PowerPoint's help for "shortcuts").

Kind regards,
