What is the inside address on a letter?

• A. Address of the recipient
• B. Return address
• C. Date line
• D. Subject line

Answer: (A)

Inside address refers to the recipient’s information written inside the letter. In a traditional business letter, you place the recipient’s name, job title, company, and full mailing address a few lines below the date and before the salutation. This placement makes it clear who is receiving the letter and helps keep the layout formal and organized. The return address is the sender’s address shown on the outside of the envelope (or at the top of the letterhead), the date line is the date at the top of the letter, and a subject line (when used) indicates the topic but is not an address. So the recipient’s address is the inside address.
