Some examples of Block Style Formatting would be business letters or memos. For business documents you don't want the lines to be indented. That is the purpose of the name(Block).
Indent
The '' Indent Format '' is used for reports or anything like that. You only want to indent the first line of your paragraph when using this format. The tab key is often used to indent : Indent and Hanging Indent Formats.
Hanging Indent
The Hanging Indent is pretty much the opposite of the Indent Format. They both indent, unlike Block Style. However, all the lines in Hanging Indent are indented but the first. The lines are flush with the left margin and this means each individual line is indented.
