ProfessorSorry I don't have a picture but here's a description. Maybe you can draw your own. Take any flat object; board , window pane, table top etc. The flat surface is a plane. Now imagine tilting it. When it makes an angle with the horizonal it is "inclined". So any flat surface tilted from horizontal is an "inclined plane". Most physics problems that refer to an inclined plane are talking about a smooth rectangular board tilted at some angle. Like if someone took away the stairs to your front door so you lay down a board to walk up. The tilted board (strictly speaking the surface of the tilted board) would be an inclined plane.

Why is a ramp a n inclined plane?
A ramp is an inclined plane because an inclined plane is a set of a surface set at an angle that is not a right angle. In which a ramp is an inclined plane!
What does a inclined plane have to do with a screw?
The thread running around the screw is an inclined plane. If you were to straighten it out, it would be an inclined plane. The screw itself can be considered a combination of wedge and inclined plane.

Uses of inclined plane?
an inclined plane can be use as ramp
What inclined plane is the length of the inclined plane plane divide by its height?
The slope of an inclined plane is found by dividing the rise of the plane by the run of the plane. also the ideal mechanical advantage.
What is a screw an inclined plane?
A screw is a twisted inclined plane
How did the inclined plane get its name?
It is a plane...............that is inclined. Seriously, I'm not joking.
