Word refusing to indent for my MLA term paper

I have my term paper done and have my sources all typed up except Word is refusing to indent in MLA format. It is like it has a mind of its own. My prof is a stickler on proper MLA  formatting and I am screwed if I cannot figure  how to change the indentation. This is surreal. Help community please!

How are you trying to do it.

You should define a style in which you use the Format Paragraph utility to set the indents to whatever you need them to be and then apply that style where those indents are needed.

I believe that you need to apply a Hanging indent
