In the form of intented business letter, how many spaces do we need to indent in the first line of each paragraph? A. One space B. two spaces C. five spaces D. four spaces

In the context of a blocked or modified block business letter format (which is standard today), paragraphs are not indented.

However, your question specifically asks about the intended format. In the older, traditional indented business letter format, the first line of each paragraph is typically indented.

Standard typing rules (using pica or elite typewriters) and modern word processing rules for indented paragraphs usually default to 0.5 inches. In typewriter terms (where a single space is one character), 0.5 inches is generally five spaces.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

C. five spaces
