inclined plane
A gently sloping driveway on a hill can be considered a type of inclined plane, a simple machine that reduces the amount of force needed to move objects up or down. The sloping surface of the driveway allows vehicles to easily overcome the force of gravity.
The blade of a pencil sharpener is a wedge.
A simple machine that is also an inclined plane is a ramp. A ramp is a sloping surface that allows objects to be moved from a lower to a higher height with less force.
A kickstand is not considered a wedge. A wedge is a simple machine with a sloping surface used to lift or split objects, while a kickstand is a support device used to keep a bicycle or motorcycle upright when not in use.
A wedge is a simple machine that consists of an inclined plane with one or two sloping sides. It is used to split, lift, or tighten objects by converting a force applied to the wide end into a greater force applied at the narrow end.
That would be a wedge.

No, a simple machine is a mechanical device that helps make work easier. A flat surface with one end higher than the other is not typically considered a simple machine, but rather a ramp or inclined plane.
