I changed the screen to Portrait by accident. I have no idea how to change it back to Landscape.I could not find anything in the User Manual for this. Help!

There's a 3 keys- hot key to change this. Control+Alt+ right-left arrow key. That's how you probably caused it .

Thanks Mary for the basic solution.
Let me add that (at least on my Inspiron 3748), to get the display to go from portrait to landscape, you have to do ctl + alt + up-arrow (or ctl + alt + down-arrow if you want it landscaped upside-down!). ctl + alt + left-arrow or right-arrow gives you portrait with the top on the left or right respectively.

Thank you, Mary! This really helped; discovered Control+Alt+Up Arrow did it for me!:emotion-1:
