Move each of the armor items (helmet, chestplate, leggings, boots) with Projectile Protection from your inventory to your character's armor boxes.

You will see your character's appearance change as the armor is worn.

Now that you are wearing the enchanted armor with Projectile Protection, the amount of damage that you will take from objects projected at you will be reduced.
