How can you switch to handout master view in PowerPoint?

Switching to Handout Master view in PowerPoint is accomplished by accessing the View tab on the ribbon. This tab contains various options for managing different views of your presentation, including Slide Master, Notes Master, and Handout Master.

By selecting the View tab, you can easily locate the option for Handout Master, which allows you to customize the layout and design of printed handouts for your audience. This view offers tools to adjust elements like headers, footers, and the arrangement of slides on the handouts.

The other options do not specifically provide access to change the view settings to Handout Master. The File tab primarily deals with document management tasks, the Slides tab is not a recognized section in the ribbon, and the Home tab focuses on editing features like font and paragraph styles, rather than page layout or view settings. Therefore, the View tab is the correct choice for accessing Handout Master in PowerPoint.
