a) .pot
b) .ptt
c) .dtp
d) .ppt
The correct answer is a. .pot. Here’s why:
- .pot: This file extension specifically designates a PowerPoint template file. It contains the pre-designed layouts, color schemes, fonts, and formatting styles that you can reuse for creating new presentations.
- .ptt: This extension was used for presentations created with older versions of PowerPoint (pre-PowerPoint 97). While some systems might still recognize this format, it’s not the standard for templates anymore.
- .dtp: This extension is not typically associated with PowerPoint presentations or templates. It might be used for other file types depending on the software.
- .ppt: This extension represents a standard PowerPoint presentation file format (.pptx is the newer version). While you can save a presentation as a template (using the “Save As” option and choosing the “PowerPoint Template” file type), the base .ppt extension itself doesn’t indicate a template.
