A Correct answer
Explanation

ALT+0178 (using numeric keypad) produces the superscript 2 symbol (²) in Windows applications including Excel. This is useful for creating squared notation like x² without using formatting tools. The other options are incorrect - subscript uses ALT+0179, concatenation is done with the & operator or CONCATENATE function.
