When the left edge of a paragraph is moved in from the left margin, it is called a "hanging indent." This formatting style is often used in bibliographies or reference lists, where the first line of each entry is flush with the left margin, while subsequent lines are indented. It helps improve readability and organization in documents.
It is true that you can right align a paragraph so that the text is flush with the right margin and has a jagged left edge. This is called a right-justified margin. A false statement would be that you have to select a whole paragraph in order to change the paragraph formatting.

To move the left edge of a paragraph to the left margin, you should use a negative first-line indent. This can be achieved by setting the first line of the paragraph to be indented negatively, which effectively pulls the first line of the paragraph to the left beyond the left margin. This technique is useful for creating visual emphasis or for stylistic purposes in formatting text.
To move the left edge of a paragraph to the left of the left margin, you should use a negative left indent. This adjustment allows the paragraph to extend beyond the normal margin, creating a unique visual effect or emphasizing specific text. Be cautious with its use, as excessive negative indents can disrupt the flow of the document.
The edge of the blade should be called as edge of the blade. But in practice the cutting edge is probably called as margin of the blade. The expert in English language should explain better.
negative indent
First let us discuss in general what indention means. When one is writing text on to a computer or onto a piece of paper, one normally starts on the left hand side of the page and writes each line so that it begins set in the same amount from the edge of the page. This gap is called a 'margin'. A paragraph indentation will start a new paragraph with the margin for that paragraph shifted to the right of the line of the page margin. The indentation can be applied to all the lines of that paragraph (as I have done in this example) or just the first line. The above is an example of indentation of a paragraph.
