The sides of a volcano are known as flanks.
It is called a side vent.
A broad volcano with gently sloping sides describes a shield volcano. These types of volcanoes are characterized by their low, wide profile and are formed by the slow accumulation of fluid lava flows over time, which create a shield-like shape. This type of volcano tends to have non-explosive eruptions due to the low viscosity of the lava.
A volcano with gently sloping sides is called a shield volcano. These types of volcanoes are primarily built up by the flow of low-viscosity basaltic lava, which can travel long distances. As a result, shield volcanoes tend to have broad, dome-shaped profiles. Examples include Mauna Loa in Hawaii and Kilauea.

When lava comes out the side of the volcano, it is called a lava flow or lava eruption. This can happen as a result of pressure build-up within the volcano causing the lava to find alternative pathways to reach the surface, often leading to lava flowing out from the sides.
That's correct! The sides of a volcano are indeed called its flanks.
It is called a side vent.
A shield volcano is broad with gently sloping sides.

Actually, a volcanic mountain with a wide base and gently sloping sides is called a shield volcano. Shield volcanoes are typically formed by low-viscosity lava flows that spread out in layers, creating a broad, shield-like shape.
