To lift a piano to the top of a building, a pulley system would be the most effective simple machine. Pulleys can reduce the amount of force needed to lift heavy objects by distributing the weight and allowing for easier lifting with less effort. By using multiple pulleys in a block and tackle configuration, you can significantly decrease the force required to raise the piano safely to the desired height.

No. Gears are a type of simple machine. Combined with another simple machine, it would then make a compound machine.
A screw is the simple machine which holds two boards together. In this case it is not acting as a machine though.

A simple machine that was used my Egyptians would be a lever or any type of lever that would help them to lift heavy materials while building the pyramids.
That isn't possible, not with a simple machine and not with a complicated machine, since otherwise, conservation of energy would be violated.

a complex machine would be a car, but a simple machine would be a wheel and axle. an example of a wheel and axle would be a steering wheel
It's a tool
