Select Document... from the Format Menu, and set your tabs to .75 inches.  Then 
with the ruler showing, set the paragraph margins for "Hanging paragraphs" 
(move the lower triangle on the left edge of the ruler to .75, then drag the 
upper half of it to 0.); you can do this by entering the desired values in 
Format/Paragraph, too. This will give you the first paragraph. For successive 
indentations on the following paragraphs, use command-shift-N to indent, or
command-shift-M to unindent one level. You can find the associated commands in
Tools/Commands... under the name "Nest Paragraph" (and Unnest, I guess), and
put them on a menu if you like.
