It's worth doing a search of previous postings because most common questions have been asked and answered before. I got this link from a previous post:
http://corz.org/serv/tricks/htaccess2.php

If it doesn't answer your question, there are a number of previous posts that you can look at.

I figured it out and for anyone who is reading this save the following as .htaccess in public_html

PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. Options +FollowSymlinks
  2. RewriteEngine on
  3.  
  4.  
  5. RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?example\.com
  6. RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/example\.com
  7. RewriteRule (.*) /example\.com/$1 [L]
