How to Superscript Text in PowerPoint 2010

In the past, when I was still at school, we take lots of test. While in Mathematics, we meet lots of superscript numbers, like “a2“ in some Math equations. Because these test papers are all printed from Microsoft Word files, I wonder how to type that in Word?

Now in my work I do a lot of PowerPoint stuff, and we also use such superscript in our documents. How to type that in PowerPoint then?

In fact format text as superscript is the same in Word, PowerPoint and Excel. So here I’d use PowerPoint 2010 as example to show how to make it.
